Cosy season – think blankets, hot chocolate and blissful nights in – is fast approaching. But that also means it’ll soon be time to pop the heating on.

Energy bills have been a major worry for countless Britons for years amid the grinding cost of living crisis, with costs peaking at £2,380 last year.

While this year isn’t as bad at £1,717, it’s still an eye-watering annual sum – yet there are ways to make the winter a tad easier.

The government’s Warm Discount Scheme is a week away from opening. The welfare programme offers a one-off discount on your electricity bill and potentially your gas bill too.

Only certain people are eligible for the £150 discount, however, and the conditions depend greatly on where you live in the UK. Energy bills vary from region to region, with one study finding that Merseyside and North Wales have some of the most expensive electricity costs in the nation.
