Not Sure if there’s a thread already about this if so sorry.

I’m just feeling really shocked about this. How awful it would be for people.

I Wish we could pay into a fund to support these charities, mumsnet could help! If we banded together, we could make a massive difference to the lives of ourselves and so many.

if anyone knows more about the situation or works for any of the charities. How can we help?

ā€œFood banks, warm banks, postcode lotteries, people dying in ambulances waiting for hours outside hospitals, people considering suicide because they don’t know how they’ll heat their homes – all of this has been ā€˜normalised’ in a country where the government has prioritised profits, especially the profits of the energy corporations, over the money we need for our households and for services.ā€

Sorry I guess I didn’t really post this in the right place, or put a catchy enough title.

hopefully there’s help out there :(

The biggest help would be for the country to wake up and stop voting these psychopaths in. They are actively trying to kill us now it seems.

is anyone talking about this and can we do anything to support councils providing this?

Coldness kills, fact, all the mould in houses too! Lead to spores on the lungs. :(
