Help pledged for people struggling to make ends meet as living costs spike

Struggling Renfrewshire households are set to receive £150 of support to help tackle the rising cost of living.

But the Scottish Government's Finance Secretary, Kate Forbes, admitted the money is "not enough" to help those hit hardest by cost-of-living increases.

The funding will go to households in council tax bands A to D and all those eligible for council tax reductions.
