London-based charity Z2K, which works with vulnerable debtors and people on low incomes, is appealing to supporters to donate their winter fuel payment if they can afford to do so. Z2K’s chief executive Joanna Kennedy says: “With energy prices skyrocketing, more and more of the people Z2K supports find themselves in fuel poverty.”

The tax-free payment, worth £200 for the over-60s and £300 for the over-80s, is due in the coming weeks. To make a donation please visit http://www.justgiving.com/z2k/donate.
