Cost of living increases

The first week of April is when most of us will find that our outgoing expenses have increased.

Most of us will feel the pinch of increased energy prices, council tax and Rent and services charges going up. Coupled with the general cost of living Everyone is worried on some level about the cost of things.

Rent is considered a priority bill and it is important to talk to your Housing Officer if you feel that you may be experiencing issues with payment. The Financial inclusion Team and citizens advice are a really great place to start if you are worried about your finances as they can point you in the direction of other organisations who may be able to help.

The Association has cost of living information on the website behind the bright blue square which may be of use. As ever we would encourage you to talk to your Housing Officer if you any issues connected to your rent.
