The soaring cost of food and other essentials impacts everyone, as well as rising rents and mortgages.
Wokingham Borough Council have launched new guides to help now and ahead of the winter. They set out support for different groups with the cost of living:
- Help for people with children
- Help if you’re a pensioner
- Help for single people
- Help if you’re in an emergency
You can start at their cost of living help page if you’re not sure which page to visit from the list above.
If you need help now, you can apply for a £100 voucher to help with food, bills, energy and other essentials.
