New government help was announced today for hundreds of thousands of families who missed out on energy bills cash this winter.
Funding will go to people who fell through the cracks of either Rishi Sunak’s £400 discount between October and March, or Liz Truss ’s £2,500-a-year cap on average household bills until 2024.
People in caravan parks or on ‘shared heat networks’ in flats will now be given a £400 one-off payment, if they weren’t eligible for the £400 discount already.
