Cost of Living Campaign 2025

Published: 25 November 2025

If you’re struggling to pay for food and other essentials, there are local schemes and organisations in North Yorkshire which may be able to help or point you in the right direction. You’ll find information about emergency support with everyday living costs, benefits, energy bills, food, schemes to help families, free adult learning courses and managing your debt all in one place at www.northyorks.gov.uk/costofliving
You’ll also find details for local community-based support including Warm Welcome spaces as well as advice on staying safe and well.
If you’re less confident with technology and have friends or family who might be able to help you understand what support is available, please ask them to look at the web page with you. You can also go into any North Yorkshire library or North Yorkshire Council office.
If you’re not sure who to turn to, you can call North Yorkshire Council’s customer service centre on 0300 131 2 131 Monday, Tuesday and Thursday 9am to 5pm, Wednesday 9:30am to 5pm and Friday 9am to 4:30pm asking for ‘cost of living help’ when prompted.

We also have details of the leaflets available in Hall Square offices if you visit the Tourist Information Point office.
