A mum has shared her savvy tips to cut down on energy bills - including switching off the oven, using garden solar lights in the home, and working in Wetherspoons for the day.

Heidi Ondrak, 51, has seen her direct debits for gas and electric hike from £98-a-month to £268 - a 173 percent rise - and is dreading another increase in October this year.

The mum-of-two is finding as many ways as she can to cut down on her bills and save energy.

She has taken to showering at her local gym to save on her water bill, and limits showers to four minutes if using the one in her home in Plymouth, Devon.

She saves £28-a-month on meals by switching off her oven and hob and instead using an air fryer, slow cooker or George Foreman grill to make her family dinners.
