Comment on the latest energy price cap increase

Commenting on the latest rise of the energy price cap, Lesley Rudd, Chief Executive of Electrical Safety First said: “With bills skyrocketing, we are expecting to see some households turn to plug-in heaters for short bursts of heat in single rooms as, for many, central heating becomes too costly. We urge the public to use them safely and to never leave portable heaters close to fabrics or switched on overnight.”
