Unsure of where to place this.
Our home is run on heating oil for the central heating etc.
Between the extremely cold weather and the fact my husband has health problems so can't have periods where I have no heat in the house due to his chest and recuring pneumonia/pleuracy over the last 4 years.
I am really worried as we simply cannot raise the money to put heating oil in and it is due to run out any day now. The minimum order is 500 litres which is approx £300.
Is there any help available for people in receipt of benefits with things like this?
i rang the local Jobcentre but they were not helpful at all - just said crisis loans and such wouldn't be accepted for heating oil.
Thanks in advance xx
