Residents of Chesterfield who are worried about the cost of living crisis are being supported by a relationship charity.

Amy Harris, chief executive officer of Relate Chesterfield and North Derbyshire, said: “Pressure and anxiety of how individuals, couples and families are going to be able to pay their bills may be causing difficulties within relationships or with their own personal well-being.

"Relate will be offering free one-hour assessment appointments throughout September 2022 to support people’s mental health and wellbeing during this time. As other agencies are supporting the financial concerns Relate would like to offer emotional support to try and help.

“Following these assessments the charity will then try to ensure that as many people as possible progress to fully funded ongoing counselling.
