An East Kilbride charity held a successful event aimed at helping residents through the cost of living crisis.
Agape Wellbeing brought together various organisations from across Lanarkshire to offer advice and support to folk worried about making ends meet.
The organisations included NHS Lanarkshire, the Citizens' Advice Bureau, Voluntary Action South Lanarkshire (VASLan) and Christians Against Poverty (CAP).
Agape Welbeing is a registered charitable organisation located centrally in East Kilbride, next to the bus station, dedicated to helping the local community achieve positive wellbeing through services and activities.
Agape Wellbeing is supported through its children’s charity shop, Agape Kidz, which sells high quality new and preloved items from clothing to toys and prams. Agape Kidz also provides a Family Hub, which supports families with young children.
Manager, Drew McKinney, told Lanarkshire Live : "The event is important as the cost of living crisis is affecting everyone, people are very anxious and stressed.
"As a charity we felt it was important to take the lead on this.
"At Agape Wellbeing we are all about our local community, and through working with our various partners, we were able to bring other services together that could provide people with different solutions and options to tackle the many obstacles and barriers this cost of living crisis is bringing to people’s front doors.
"Together in partnership we all believe that we can support guide and assist people to get through this."
