The appeal comes from Fife Council which is working with a number of organisations, including Citizens Advice and Rights Fife (CARF) and Cosy Kingdom.

“Money is an issue for many people across Fife, not just for those on benefits - we’re also seeing an increase in the number of people who are in in-work poverty.”
Councillor David Ross, co-leader, added: “The most important thing is to know you’re not alone and that help is available.”
