About the event
Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, puts London’s most urgent questions to Martin Lewis CBE. What help is available for people to manage soaring energy or mortgage costs? What are some easy tips to help people ease their financial pressures? How can we best manage our mental health through this crisis?
Join the Mayor of London and Martin Lewis for a bold discussion on the cost of living crisis, the outlook for this year and beyond, and practical tips on how to help manage this crisis.
Organisations including Citizens Advice and Energy Saving Trust will also host stalls to provide information about the support they can offer with things like unclaimed benefits, debt, energy efficiency and digital skills and help attendees access their services.
The Mayor’s Cost of Living bus, run by Debt Free Advice will also be on site to provide advice on debt and money worries.
