The on-going cost-of-living crisis continues to have a significant impact on all of us.
This is due to the cost of everyday essentials, such as energy and food, rising much faster than average incomes and/or benefits.
Work to help reduce the impact on the people of Lanarkshire is already underway and is being led by North and South Lanarkshire Councils and the voluntary sector.
These organisations have a range of supports which can be accessed here:
- Support and advice for North Lanarkshire residents
- Support and advice for South Lanarkshire residents
The NHS Lanarkshire website has collated support available from NHS Lanarkshire.
This includes support to quit smoking, eating well for less, my life my money and Lanarkshire Mind Matters.
