ANYONE affected by the cost-of-living crisis is invited to a special session aimed at ensuring people are receiving the support they are entitled to.

The Earley Home Guard Social Club in Pitts Lane is opening its doors on Wednesday, January 25, for the event.

Funded by Earley Town Council, the session will see a team from Reading Welfare Rights offer advice and support for people struggling with rising prices, bills and housing costs.

They will check to see if participants are receiving all the benefits and support they can rightfully claim.

Bulmershe and Whitegates borough councillor Shirley Boyt will also be on hand to hear any concerns.

The event runs from noon to 2.30pm, and places should be booked in advance.
