How did it come about?
What was the outcome?
Two events took place across February and March. They provided a number of local people access to information and advice from several organisations, including the council’s Community Partnership Team, Tackling Poverty Team and Community Learning & Development (CLD) Adult Learning. Also in attendance included Citizens Advice Bureau, Making Life Easier, Home Energy Scotland, Lanarkshire Carers, Police Scotland, Routes to Work and National Health Service (NHS) Health Improvement.
As well as the advice on hand, the Community Partnership team also provided soup packs and recipes, a small number of remaining packs were donated to local foodbanks.
