'I haven’t put the heating on all through the winter': People on the streets of Manchester react to the energy price cap
04.02.2022 - 00:42 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
It was announced today that the energy price cap will rise by 54 per cent in April.
Due to an 'unprecedented' rise in wholesale gas prices, the average household's energy bills are expected to rise by £693 a year.
For many, that increase - along with rising food costs, petrol costs and mortgages - will put many in a difficult position. Some may decide to turn the heating off on a cold night, others may decide that it's too costly to cook a meal in the oven.

Chancellor Rishi Sunak said there would be financial support worth around £9 million to help support the millions of households affected.
Mr Sunak said the government's plan would include an upfront discount on bills worth £200 for domestic electricity customers, which would be repaid in £40 installments over five years.
There would also be a £150 council tax rebate in April, which would not need to be repaid, alongside a £150 million fund to help local authorities support lower-income households with higher tax properties.
But, people on the streets of Trafford and Cholton today say that is not nearly enough - and people already struggling could be about to suffer even more.
Margaret and Chick live near to Chorlton and confess they are in a lucky position - having retired and now living off a pension - but fear for others in different positions.
“We feel protected to a certain extent,” Margaret says.
“We retired when we were expected to and we got a pension when we expected to get it so in that sense we’ve been very fortunate.
“I think it’s younger people and those already struggling that are going to suffer the hardest from this.”
