Support with your energy bills
Living with cancer can affect the cost of your energy bills. Spending more time at home and feeling colder because of your treatment are common reasons why people living with cancer find that they spend more money on keeping warm.
If you have difficulty paying your energy bills, we’re here to support you. We can:
- Help with paying your gas, electricity and water bills, no matter who your supplier is
- Getting access to schemes to help with your gas, electricity and water charges
- Charity Grants
- Help with boiler schemes
- Dealing with water companies
