Energy and benefits

Many utility companies have a priority services register, which eligible customers can join to access extra assistance, particularly during a supply emergency.

Wokingham Borough Council has set up a Cost of Living Hub to signpost you to the advice and support through the ongoing crisis.

You can call Citizens Advice Wokingham on 0808 278 7958 for friendly advice on benefits, bills, or other advice if you’re having a difficult time.

Other websites for local help options include:

• Apply for the Household Support Grant to help pay for essentials like bills and food
• Get help with food
• Get items to lower energy use
• How you can help others
