Interactive community directory available to help people find local cost of living support

Wiltshire Council have created an online interactive community directory to help you find what warm spaces and community food providers there are in the county to support you through the cost-of-living challenges.

The directory has been created using information collected by Wiltshire Council and contains a comprehensive list of the support already available. The directory will be regularly updated as more information becomes available.

Interactive Community Directory 

The directory can be found at Interactive Community Directory – Wiltshire Council.

To find out the support that’s available on your doorstep, and across the county, please visit the directory and select your postcode area – this will then automatically generate a list of what’s available, as well as a host of other useful features.

For anyone wishing to make donations to the community food providers there are contact and website details included for each within the Interactive Community Directory. 

Supporting you through the rising cost of living

You can find a range of information and guidance on a variety of cost of living related topics such as energy, council tax and benefits, housing information, the support of local partner agencies, and advice on mental health on the Wiltshire Council website here. There is also a section dedicated to support and advice for businesses.

Information for Support Organisations

All Wiltshire organisations who are offering a warm space or community food provider services are invited to fill out a short survey if they haven’t already done so, so that their details can be included in the Interactive Community Directory.

The surveys for support organisations to complete can be found in the ‘Local practical help’ section of the Wiltshire Council cost of living webpages here.
