The Western Power Distribution website has issued advice on anyone worried about power cuts during cold weather:

Know your free emergency numbers

In a power cut dial 105 or, for a gas emergency, dial 0800 111999.

Prepare your home

Keep a torch handy and get your appliances serviced by a Gas Safe registered engineer to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning. Vulnerable households can get extra support by signing up to the Priority Service Register.

Keep your eyes open

Keep an eye on the weather forecaster and, if you have a power cut or a gas emergency, check on your neighbours.
