Gedling Borough Council is inviting residents to a free event designed to provide advice and support for those struggling with the cost of living.
As part of Challenge Poverty Week, the event will take place on Wednesday, October 16, from 10am. to 2pm., at the council’s Civic Centre in Arnot Hill Park, Arnold.
Attendees can speak directly with representatives from various local organisations, including Age UK, Citizens Advice, Jigsaw Homes, and the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
Councillor Kathryn Fox, Portfolio Holder for Life Chances and Vulnerability, said: “This event is about ensuring that no one in our community is left struggling alone.”
In addition to advice on benefit entitlement and housing, support will be available for issues such as council tax, mental and physical health, job-seeking, and managing winter bills.
“We are bringing together a wide range of organisations and experts under one roof to provide essential support and advice.”, Kathryn added.
