Anyone worried about mounting costs due to rent, food shopping and utility bills will be able to get free advice at a cost-of-living event in Ashburton next week.

Representatives from Teignbridge District Council, Teignbridge Citizens Advice, the Department of Work and Pensions and South West Water will be joined by local organisations including the Ashburton Repair Café and Teign Housing to answer questions about money and support.

The event takes place between 1pm and 4pm on Wednesday November 20 at Ashburton Town Hall. There will be free transport available from Buckfastleigh at 12:30pm.

Over 550 people have already attended eight similar events held across Teignbridge.
