Quotes:
Tracy Dighton, Chief Officer of Citizens Advice 1066 - "Many people are finding it hard to cope with their energy bills. The Citizens Advice volunteers can help people stay warmer by lowering bills through helping find discounts and savings. They also have lots of tips on how to keep warm and can refer people into the Winter Home Check Service for an assessment on what measures could make their home warmer. Anyoe is welcome to come and get the help."
