Cost of Living Support

Community Action Derby & Derby City Council have complied this information to help people struggling in the face of high inflation.

The link takes you to information to help those renting or having difficulty affording council tax, information on what you can do if the energy bills are a worry, the organisations in Derby which can help when to comes to food, clothing, toiletries or furniture, how to access debt support and advice, information on what benefits you may be entitiled to as well as advice on what to do if you need to increase your income.

Please share this information with people you know to be struggling. Also Darley Warm Living Room offers a friendly weekly get together at zero cost with hot drinks, activities, toast, games & jigsaws, conversation and advice on accessing support.

The cost of living is rising steeply. Energy, food and bills are all increasing, and many of us are struggling to keep up. These pages contain information with help that may be available to you – whether it’s support with debt, help to cover your bills, or access to jobs advice.

If you can’t find what you’re looking for, please get in touch.

You can call the Community Action reception on 01332 346266 between 9:30 - 16:00 Monday - Friday. 

They also have a textphone for those who are hard of hearing - 07490 341 584. If you leave a message, they will endeavour to get back to you on the same day

 Or you can email  support@communityactionderby.org.uk
