Energy Debt Crisis Hits Harder Than Ever | Sheffield News
Description
Over one million UK households are drowning in energy debt, with single-parent families and those with disabled members hit hardest—nearly 14% of single-parent homes are behind on bills, triple the national average. Racial disparities also emerge, as Black, African, Caribbean, and Black British households face higher rates of arrears. With energy prices surging since last year’s data, experts warn the crisis is worsening, pushing more into financial distress. This isn’t about choice—it’s a systemic affordability emergency demanding urgent, targeted solutions.
