Debt help charity Christians Against Poverty (CAP) is offering people in East Kilbride access to their money course in bid to keep low income families afloat.
Westwood Baptist Church and East Mains Baptist Church are offering anyone a place on their CAP Money course this October and November to help those struggling survive the winter months in the face of yet again another enormous energy price hike.
The short course is designed to help people create workable budgets, helping you see exactly what you are spending, how you could save money and prioritise your spending.
A CAP spokesman said: "Many local families living on a low income are already in a financial crisis due to widespread rising costs.
"The October energy price rise, combined with all the other price increases, will result in debt, destitution and desperation for thousands of local people this winter.
"People are facing unparalleled financial challenges right now.
"Getting our money under control, preparing a budget and having a clear picture of what’s coming in and going out is the first essential step to navigating our way through the next few months and possibly years."
CAP’s Money courses will run at Westwod Baptist Church, 2 Tasman Drive, East Kilbride from 7.30pm to 9pm on Monday, October 3, 10, 24 and 31 and at East Mains Baptist Church, 12 Maxwell Drive, East Kilbride on Saturday, November 19 from 10am till 3pm. Lunch will be provided.
