People in parts of Merseyside with prepayment meters are being urged to act as temperatures take a tumble.
With people across the UK receiving £400 under the government’s energy support scheme, while for many this is being applied automatically, those with prepayment meters are at risk of missing out.
Concerned at recent data released showing 1.3m in vouchers are yet to be redeemed, meaning £80m of government support remains unclaimed from many of the UK’s most vulnerable families, Sefton Council has issued a reminder to residents to take their vouchers to be redeemed.
