Thousands are dying each year in Scotland!
A third of the population are living in fuel poverty.

Housing and Welfare Minister Margaret Burgess said: "Rising energy bills are a huge concern for this government and fuel poverty is an absolute scandal in an energy-rich country like Scotland.

"The more that energy companies continue to implement punishing price increases, the more they are undoing the good work we are doing to tackle fuel poverty.

"That is why we are urging the UK government, who has responsibility in this area, to do more to help vulnerable people and ensure that our households are better protected."
