An elderly couple can no longer afford to heat their home after their energy bills more than doubled last month - forcing them to wear coats to bed.
Gerald Porter, 83, and his wife Mair, 80, say the price hike has “taken over their lives”, with the pair having given up their social lives and stopped using their oven to keep costs down.
Now, Gerald is even considering going back to work to "earn a few extra pennies" to help support his wife Mair, who was recently diagnosed with dementia.
