What's on this winter in Nottingham ❄️

Do you know where to look for money help and advice?

Cost of living

As winter approaches and the cost of living crisis bites, we have launched a campaign to tell people where to look for money help and advice in Nottingham.

The Ask Lion website www.asklion.co.uk/money is a useful one-stop-shop that pulls together simple steps everyone can take to help manage their finances. The advice covers budgeting, benefits, savings, debt, housing problems, food banks and ways to reduce household bills.

The asklion website also signposts people to a wide range of support agencies who can give you free and confidential advice with more complex money problems.

There is obviously a close link between money worries, stress and anxiety. So it’s important to know that mental health support is also available through www.asklion.co.uk/mentalhealth with a directory of local confidential support services.

If you’re worried about money this winter, the important thing to remember is that you are not alone and help is available in Nottingham.

Waste consultation

Have your say on how waste and recycling is collected in Nottingham ♻️

The UK Government has set a national target to increase the amount of waste recycled in England to 65%, while keeping waste that ends up in landfill below 10%. The Government is also introducing new collection rules for food waste and recycling to deliver more consistency across England.

To achieve these goals, the City Council is proposing new options for waste and recycling collections in Nottingham. These include:

  • Working on initiatives to help people reuse and repair items rather than throwing them away
  • Helping people to manage waste well and recycle the right things
  • Starting food waste collections
  • Making changes to how we collect recycling
  • Offering smaller general waste bins
  • Increasing our fleet of ‘alternative-fuel’ bin lorries

To help us shape the final strategy, we want you to tell us your thoughts on waste and recycling in Nottingham. Sharing your opinions will allow us to create a new strategy that works for the city.
