A terminally ill woman with just months to live has been left so poor by the cost-of-living crisis that she can no longer afford to survive.
Margaret Burns was diagnosed with lung cancer 18 months ago and fears she will not survive the winter – despite the energy price cap announced last week.
The 60-year-old said: “I’m trying to budget every day to work out what I’m going to need and how I can make things stretch. I don’t know if I will be here this winter but, if I am, I don’t know how I’ll cope.”
