WINTER WELLNESS DIRECTORY 2024

H4All are delighted to share our Winter Wellness Directory 2024 with you and trust you will find it useful. We are profoundly aware that this information is more necessary than ever this year, with the cost-of-living crisis impacting the majority of households. London is the debt capital of the UK. According to the Money & Pensions Service, a staggering 27% of Londoners are in need of debt advice. Until recently, the most common form of debt was rent arrears, but CAB (Citizens Advice Bureaux) research has revealed that, in the last couple of years, this has been overtaken by energy debt. A recent poll by the GLA (Greater London Authority) found some worrying statistics: • 30% of Londoners are ‘just about managing’ • 20% of Londoners are ‘financially struggling’ • 20% of lower income Londoners have gone without food or essential items or relied on external support in the last six months. From our broad range of work across the borough, we know that Hillingdon residents are reflected in these figures. This directory aims to give you a comprehensive guide to help you navigate these challenges and stay well. We will keep the document regularly updated. On behalf of the entire H4All team, we wish you a very healthy and safe winter season. **This advice booklet is designed to provide you with helpful advice and tips on how to manage your finances by giving you ideas on how to reduce your outgoings and should you need to, deal with debt. The information has been sourced through reliable sources as a guide only, it is not definitive and you may find additional advice through CAB or the internet.**
