Sarah Ward, 42, lives in a caravan with her partner and three sons. Her previous gas and electricity bills were around 585 euros per month; now a 77-euro gas bottle lasts over six weeks. The family pays about 702 euros per month for the caravan pitch, including water and council tax, plus roughly 59 euros for electricity. According to Sarah, the move has made their budget more manageable, and four months after settling in, the family has adapted to the smaller space.
