A says, “I have to cut down on basic living expenses. I stay in bed to keep warm, especially in winter, as I can’t afford to put the heating on. The bleakness of this, week-to-week, is having an impact on my mental and physical health. I’m trying to find somewhere else to live, but so far have not been able to find anywhere affordable in this area. I’ve had to get occasional food parcels from the food and support drop-in service.”
