// State Pensioners who are struggling to pay their bills , keep warm, and feed themselves //
Inspite of the winter fuel allowance, energy discounts, council tax reduction and £10 Xmas bonus, many state pensioners will face an uphill financial struggle.
Perhaps one way of combating the problem of keeping warm, would be to gather several state pensioners (with their consent), placing them under one household throughout the winter period?
Since many of the elderly complain of being alone, it would also promote much needed companionship.
Also food bills would work out cheaper. Since a jumbo size box of wheatybangs breakfast cereal, gives you more bang for your buck.
