Use this guide before winter and during cold snaps, especially if you or someone you care for is older, very young or has a long-term health condition. Have a thermometer for your home and a list of vulnerable people you check on.
Step by step

Keep the rooms you spend the most time in warm, especially the living room during the day and the bedroom before bed. Older people and those with health conditions are more at risk from cold homes.
