HELP AVAILABLE TO BRIGG FOLK HARD HIT BY CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN
Help could be available to people living in Brigg and surrounding communities who have been hard hit in monetary terms by the Coronavirus emergency.
North Lincolnshire Council is providing emergency assistance to help residents who are struggling financially because of Covid-19.
"This can be in the form of providing food, helping with energy bills or replacing broken items such as washing machines, fridges or freezers," the local authority explains.
"Only households whose needs cannot be met in any other way, and who have been severely impacted by the pandemic, are eligible for the funding.
"It cannot be used to buy items residents did not own beforehand, and proof of breakdown will be needed. It also cannot be used to buy items of furniture or carpets."
