The events come as energy companies announce price increases across the region.

The rising cost of living is hitting people across the country and a new series of protests, dubbed the Big Power Switch Off, is looking to protest the additional costs.

The first event saw homes across the UK switch off their power at 10:00pm on Sunday April 10 as a way to fight against rising energy prices in the UK.
