MILLIONS of struggling families “desperately need” a social tariff for energy, a coalition of more than 140 charities, MPs and organisations has said.
In an open letter sent to Prime Minister Rishi Sunak they are calling today for a long-term solution to Britain’s energy crisis as households face record winter bills — 13 per cent higher than last year.
“With winter fast approaching, short-term, targeted support is needed to protect the most vulnerable households in and on the edge of fuel poverty,” they said.
