Ten ways to stay warm and still keep energy bills down this winter.
Temperatures are continuing to drop below freezing in most places across the country and while the cosy cocoon of blankets during the night is more than enough to keep most of us warm, the waking hours are another story entirely.
Anyone worried about heating their home this winter should seek advice from charities and organisations that can navigate the often complex world of accessing fuel funding, especially those on a prepayment meter.If you are struggling with household finances contact your local council who may be able to provide crucial financial help. The Scottish Government has received £41 million from Westminster to help people in financial difficulty across Scotland.
Plugging up any gaps in your windows or doors can help, as can finding any other places where drafts could be coming in and heat could be escaping. Drawing your curtains will also help keep it warmer in your home, although keep them open if the sun is shining in. However, reducing the temperature on your thermostat by just one degree could save you hundreds of pounds this winter - and chances are you won't notice the difference.
