How to get help if you need it

/in /by

In early December South Hams District Council published a revised directory of essential information and contact details for a wide range of support available across the district from the Council and other groups.

This includes:

  • details on how to apply for the Household Support Fund to get help with paying essential bills;
  • where to go for help if you have mobility needs, including applying for a blue badge or Personal Independence Payments;
  • support to pay for energy costs as well as help to improve the energy efficiency of your home to reduce fuel bills;
  • a list of places to go for financial and practical support for young people and families;
  • contacts for a wide range of other support available locally, including foodbanks, help for people feeling isolated, mental health support and where to go for money and debt advice.
