Cost of Living - getting you the help you need
South Milton Parish Council
Received from South Hams District Council:
The dramatic increase in the cost of living is beginning to have a significant impact on residents across West Devon and South Hams. Both the District and the Borough Councils know that the cost of living which is driven by the increase in energy prices are already having an impact on most households.
Even before this current situation, 17% of Devon households were experiencing food insecurity (2021) and this has been compounded further by inflation which is now at a 40-year high.
Now with the proposed increase on the energy cap expected in October, South Hams District and West Devon Borough Councils want to take action and do everything they can to signpost their residents to get the help that they need.
Both Councils have set up a dedicated page where residents can go to get action:
