Fuel Bank Foundation, working in partnership with the Scottish and Welsh Governments, has supplied nearly 2,000 throws to vulnerable people living in Scotland and Wales since the beginning of December.
Electric throws are a more cost-effective way to keep warm as they cost very little to use. Research shows that the typical home could save around £300 per year by using an electric throw, rather than heating the whole house.
Matthew Cole, head of Fuel Bank Foundation, said the scheme has proved successful and has been well received by customers.
