Tameside cost of living support: The Helping Hand Roadshow to tour borough

Tameside residents looking for cost of living support are being invited to get advice and information as part of The Helping Hand Roadshow at venues across the borough. 

Following a string of successful Helping Hand stalls and events, the roadshow will bring financial, housing, employment, mental health and wellbeing information to residents.

This includes information on Tameside’s Warm Welcome Hubs, signposting to support available with energy bills and tips on how to save energy.  Printed information will be available for those who cannot get online.
