“I am a wheelchair user due to recent health issues. Because I am sitting down a lot I need extra heating to stay warm during the day. But I don’t turn on my heat during the day because of the increasing costs.
"I have a mobility scooter and powerchair that both need electricity to charge. Having power for my equipment is a priority, so I try to reduce my heating bill to compensate. I paid my taxes, then I got sick and couldn’t work." - IWA member.
