Families to go without fuel this winter, according to charity.

Around 30,000  people will die over the winter months, according to UK Community Foundation.

As a result, the foundation has set up a UK wide surviving winter appeal.

Lincoln is the highest in the East Midlands for fuel poverty.

According to the City of Lincoln Council 2013 Drivers Report, around 16.8% of  households are estimated to be in fuel poverty.

This is one per cent higher than Burnley and ten per cent higher than Stevenage.
