"I live off £30 a month."
A Joseph Rowntree Foundation report estimates the number of people experiencing ‘destitution’, which it defines as having a very low income or having to go without basic supplies, has more than doubled in the last five years in the UK.
Destitution is when you can't stay warm and dry, you don't know where you will find your next meal.
3.8 million people in the UK experienced destitution last year - including 1 million children - a 61% rise since 2019.

Since, SEVENTY major charities (below), & the energy industry trade body have signed up to support the letter.
