Can you fi nd your stopcock?
No sniggering - winter frozen pipe bursts can create an average £7,000 of damage, often worsened as many scrabble round searching for their stopcock - the mains water off switch - for ages as their home fl oods.
Take the time to fi nd it now – mine is under the kitchen sink. Others fi nd theirs in the bathroom or inside a cupboard. If yours isn’t working, you may want to call a plumber now, before it’s a problem.
Choosing between heating and eating? If you’re seriously behind, or in general fi nancial hardship - as far too many are after the hikes - you may be eligible for special help.
