Looking Ahead: 2023-2024
The past year has been a challenging one, both for North Tyneside Citizens Advice and for our clients. However, there are upcoming issues in 2023-2024 that we anticipate will pose their own challenges:
The Cost of Living Crisis Continues
The ongoing price rises on food and essentials this year will
disproportionately affect the most vulnerable members of our
community, especially when benefit rates are failing to keep up with
current inflation.
Increase in People Accessing Debt Advice Services
The demand for those needing debt advice is likely to increase in the
coming year. As we continue to prioritise services in the areas of debt
and benefit advice we need to ensure that clients seek advice as early
as possible.
