Help for Heroes is having to support veterans across South Lanarkshire with grants to help pay energy and food bills as the cost of living crisis continues to bite.
And, with interest rates continuing to rise, the Armed Forces charity is increasing the funds available to meet the anticipated increase in requests for help.
Nationally, the charity has already paid out grants worth more than £12,500, in the period from April to June, supporting almost 100 individuals who would've otherwise struggled to make ends meet.
