More face-to-face help brought into North Lincolnshire’s rural communities
Comments Off on More face-to-face help brought into North Lincolnshire’s rural communitiesResidents facing financial difficulties in Barton, Brigg, Crowle, Epworth and Winterton can now get free, face-to-face advice in their own communities.
North Lincolnshire Council has chosen to invest in Citizens Advice North Lincolnshire taking weekly sessions into community hubs across the area, reducing the need for residents to travel into Scunthorpe to get help. They will be available to explain what financial help is available through the Crisis Resilience Fund for people who have suffered a financial setback.
Cllr Rob Waltham, leader of North Lincolnshire Council, said: “Living outside Scunthorpe should not make it harder to get good advice when you need it.
“We have chosen to invest in taking this support directly into North Lincolnshire’s towns and rural communities, making it easier for residents to sit down with somebody locally and find a way forward.
“This is about delivering practical support close to home and ensuring communities across North Lincolnshire benefit from the services in which we invest.”
Cllr Tim Mitchell, cabinet member for finance and efficiency, said: “This investment will give residents in rural communities regular access to trusted, specialist advice without facing an unnecessary journey.
“It will help people tackle problems earlier, understand their options and build greater security and resilience.”
Sessions are available at:
- Barton Community Hub: Mondays, 1.30pm to 4.30pm
- Brigg Community Hub: Fridays, 1.30pm to 4.30pm
- Crowle Community Hub: Thursdays, 9.30am to 12.30pm
- Epworth Community Hub: Thursdays, 1.30pm to 4.30pm
- Winterton Community Hub: Mondays, 9.30am to 12.30pm
- Ashby Community Hub: Tuesdays, 9.30am to 12.30pm
- Scunthorpe Central: Fridays, 9.30am to 12.30pm and 1.30pm to 4.30pm
The additional support forms part of the council’s Community Resilience Fund programme.
