Covid-19 has had an enormous impact across the country. Whether you’re an employee, self-employed, unemployed, retired or bringing up a family, everyone has faced significant challenges in recent months.
As we head into winter the impact of the pandemic continues to be felt. In response to this, a range of financial and welfare related support measures have been put in place, both at a national and local level, to help those affected.
At East Lothian Council, they are working closely with our partners, local community groups and volunteers to make sure help gets to those who need it. This leaflet brings together some of the help available, with links to further information. If you have difficulty accessing this information online, please let East Lothian Council know and they will arrange for a hard copy of the leaflet to be sent to you.
