More than £500,000 has been given to Newcastle organisations to give them support through the cost of living crisis.
This money became available due to the Winter Wellbeing Fund which was launched in November by Newcastle City Council.
They have since financially supported over 100 different Community Sector organisations in various different ways. £6,000 has been made available per organisation to enable them to cover rising costs, and another section of funding has been put towards providing people with food and other essential items.
