Energy bills and fuel poverty

As the colder and darker nights draw in, energy bills can become a bigger concern than usual. For people affected by terminal illness, energy bills can often be higher due to the extra use of water, electricity and gas.

Do you know what energy support is available? Do you have questions about how to get support or who might be able to help?

On the 27th November 2025, we’ll be talking about fuel poverty, it’s impact on people affected by terminal illness, and what support is available on our Marie Curie social media channels.

Drop your questions below – and we’ll do our best to answer them.
