A package of measures to help residents and businesses struggling through the cost of living crisis has been unveiled by Trafford council. They include providing places where people can go to a free, safe, warm and comfortable space and get a meal.
Digital tools have also been created to signpost people to support networks and places to get money advice and a campaign will also make sure residents are not missing out on benefits. A newsletter offering helpful tips is also planned.
The council has joined forces with a range of partners including the community hubs, Citizens Advice Service, the NHS and housing providers to organise support for people and businesses in the borough. The community hubs are co-ordinating the Trafford Living Rooms scheme which will run for six months from now.
