Ahead of tomorrow's , the Chancellor has announced measures aimed at giving people “breathing space” with the cost of living, changes to Carer's Allowance and removing tariffs on everyday products.

But for households already struggling with energy bills, the problems can be much more overwhelming. People are being chased for hundreds of pounds in disputed energy bills. Others are facing repayment demands they simply cannot afford, or struggling to get suppliers to recognise their circumstances.

Across the country, local advice services are helping people challenge incorrect bills, negotiate affordable repayments and secure debt relief.

This is what free, independent advice services can achieve.

Our national polling found that 85% of UK adults believe free, independent advice should be an essential local service.

If the Government is serious about easing the cost of living, it must invest in the local advice services that help people manage their household costs and debts.

As 2026 has come to a close, we'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported our campaign.

Throughout the week 19-23 October, we explored how advice:

✅ Empowers people to make informed decisions before challenges become crises
✅ Changes lives and strengthens communities
✅ Responds to growing and increasingly complex demand
✅ Relies on the expertise and dedication of advisers, volunteers and staff
✅ Embraces innovation and technology while keeping people at its heart

We were also proud to publish two new reports:

📘 Building a National Workforce Strategy: https://bit.ly/3WkoKsy
📘 Trusted Advice When It Matters: https://bit.ly/4BBT0j5

Thank you to all the organisations, advisers, volunteers and beneficiaries who shared their stories, insights and experiences throughout the campaign.
