The increase to the cost of everyday essentials like energy and food is putting a significant pressure on incomes and people who have never had to ask for help before are finding themselves in a position where they need support. There are a number of ways in which the council can provide Support for residents struggling with the cost of living.
If you are in need of support to access food we have also worked with community organisations to develop this Community Food Support Map.
