MACMILLAN Cancer Support warned that nearly 200,000 cancer sufferers will feel “cold” and “alone” this Christmas because they do not have enough money to heat their homes.
The leading charity revealed that 28 per cent of those surveyed said they were unable to heat their homes due to financial worries while 9 per cent said they had to miss out on visiting family and friends because they couldn’t afford it.
Macmillan have called on the Tory government to rethink its plans on welfare, saying it was “incomprehensible” that the plans would take away £30 from sufferers too ill to work.
