Energy bill special: Q&A

BBC Radio 4 - Money Box, Energy bill special: Q&A

Your questions answered on the rising cost of energy.

Worried about your energy bills spiralling out of control? Money Box is here to help.

In this special programme we'll answer your questions and provide advice for those worried about the cost of energy.
Ofgem has announced that the typical household energy bill for people in England, Wales and Scotland will hit £3,549 a year from 1 October.   People on prepayment meters will typically pay an additional £59 a year on top of that.
Adam Scorer from the fuel poverty charity National Energy Action and Kathryn Porter from Watt-Logic, an energy analyst who's worked for EDF Energy and Centrica, will answer your questions.  
We'll get the latest from Westminster on what financial support people can expect this winter.
And we'll hear more on the "warm banks" being set up by councils, community groups and libraries, for people to spend time in if they can't heat their homes.
