West Northamptonshire Council launch Cost of Living Support Hub

West Northamptonshire Council have launched an online support hub full of information and advice about the rising cost of living to help residents find support available to them.

The webpage is designed to be easy to navigate and contains lots of information on accessing grants, money and debt advice, government funding, wellbeing tips and links to local community organisations.

The drop-down options are tailored to specific users and aim to make the information quick to find and easily accessible, without the need to scroll for a long period of time.

Residents can also find tips to do at home to help keep daily costs down and a Warm Welcoming Spaces Directory to find the nearest location for anyone struggling this winter.

For those who prefer to talk to someone on the phone, residents can also call WNC’s customer services team and speak to somebody directly about the support available between the hours of 9am to 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Cllr Matt Golby, said: “The rising cost of living is causing uncertainty, worry and concern for many of us right now, but we want you to know – you are not alone and there is lots happening both in the local community and nationally that can offer support.

"We understand it can be difficult to find out what support is available, so we have worked closely with partners to create a central hub of information to help with this.

"It is vital that you, your family, and those you care about have the resources needed to live well. 
"If you are struggling or would like to know more about the support you may be entitled to, please do pick up the phone or visit our support hub for more information."
