More than 1,000 people in Durham helped by Fuel Bank scheme
A scheme which provides funds to pay for energy, alongside emergency food, has already helped 1,241 people in Durham this winter.
The npower Fuel Bank aims to remove the stark choice between heating or eating by giving foodbank users with pre-payment meters vouchers for gas or electricity - whether or not they are npower customers.
This enables households that have run out of energy to get the power back on within a few hours and keep the lights and heating on for around two weeks.
