An estimated 1.7 million Scots have been forced to turn down their heating this winter amid soaring energy costs, a leading charity has found.
Analysis from Citizens Advice Scotland (CAS) of a YouGov poll found the majority of households in Scotland are turning down the thermostat or not heating all the rooms.
They say that figure equates to 78 per cent of adults in Scotland who have had to cut back on household spending due to the cost-of-living crisis.
