A single mother-of-two whose energy bill soared to £760 a month cannot afford to heat the home and uses candles for light.
Struggling Nicola Elson, 32, says she has to fork out up to £760 a month for electricity at her two-bed flat in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, Scotland.
She has lived in the property for the past year and spends the majority of her salary towards her electricity meter.
