44% of NI households reported their quality of life has been impacted by rising energy prices and the cost of living.
This is even higher amongst those living in privately rented accommodation (65%) or social housing (75%).

Across the UK, 6.1 million households are in #FuelPoverty. In Northern Ireland over 40% of adults told us they are spending more than 10% of their total household expenditure on energy costs. @lucidtalk.bsky.social
We work tirelessly to help more households stay warm, safe and healthy.

One in 10 of NI households told us they are skipping meals or cutting back on food due to rising energy prices and the cost of living. This means choosing between ‘heating or eating’ is a reality for around 80,000 NI households.

36% of NI households are sitting in a cold house, wearing coats, blankets or using a hot water bottle. These detrimental coping measures are not good for anybody’s health.
