Last month I worked undercover with debt collectors breaking into homes of vulnerable families for British Gas
We were sent to force-fit prepayment meters at homes including one where a mum was with her 4 week old baby.
If families cannot top up, their heating can be cut off

We stand in solidarity with over 300 organisations demanding debt cancellation for countries in the global South.
