At our recent Locality Planning Groups we have heard from a number of services and organisations about the challenges highlighted by the cost of living crisis.  We are supporting local services, by sharing support and resources across the area, and have included a lot of information and potential support for communities and services in this ‘FYI’.

We will continue to share, promote and highlight essential support for organisations and communities in ‘FYI’ and at Locality Planning Group meetings, so please keep all information coming in so we can promote all the great work in the Southern Area!
