In reply to Chris Ebbutt:
Sorry I think your misunderstanding my point.
I've a gas meter I can top it up at the post office if I'm allowed out. I get 5 pounds emergency credit. If an old person with no family is forced to isolate and is unwell how do they get more credit?
What if the post office is closed etc.
Lucky winter seems behind us but gas for cooking and electricity for lighting, cooking etc seem really important for people stuck inside.
