£150 needed for energy costs
X, a care leaver and single man in his fifties, with multiple complex physical and mental health needs, is living on a low income of Employment and Support Allowance and Personal Independence Payment. He was sent an invitation letter from the Government to apply for the Warm Home Discount of £150 to help with his household energy bills, but his application was turned down as he pays his landlord direct (rather than a utility company) for gas he supplies to his caravan. X is currently paying exorbitant amounts for what his landlord purports is his gas usage.
