Cllr Susan Wallwork, Fenland District Council portfolio holder for community, said: “It’s vital to us to offer help and support to everyone in our community as we all face another winter of challenging energy costs.

“There’s loads of advice on our website and we can also signpost to partners who can offer support. We don’t want anyone to feel they have to struggle alone.”
