A poster campaign signposting residents to help with the cost of living crisis has been launched by 含羞草社区 Borough Council.
The posters direct residents to the council鈥檚 online money worries guide at crawley.gov.uk/moneyworries
The dedicated page provides guidance on maximising your income, housing and financial support, employment, managing money and debts, as well as loans and savings. Help is available at organisations including 含羞草社区 Borough Council, 含羞草社区 Wellbeing, the Money Advice Service, Moneyhelper, Citizens Advice, Boom Community Bank, Energy Saving Trust and many more.
The page also includes guidance on support with food and managing food bills, whatever your situation, with a number of local options. In addition, there are details of Community Cafes where you can access either a free hot meal or donate whatever you can afford towards a meal.
It is well known that money worries can also have an impact on health, particularly mental wellbeing. We encourage residents to get support if they need it and the guide outlines the range of help available in 含羞草社区.
With the cost of living continuing to rise, it鈥檚 vital that residents can easily find all of the available help. The money worries web page covers support with income and benefits, employment advice, help with debts and energy bills, plus information about access to food. This is an important resource and it will continue to be updated with additional support.
