Residents in Dorset can get help with their housing costs thanks to a new partnership.

Dorset Council has teamed up with Citizens Advice and homeless charity Shelter to help people who are struggling with things like rent, or are worried they may lose their home.

Working in partnership, residents will be able to get housing advice and support. This may include better ways to manage your income and how to prioritise bills or offer advice on what types of benefits you may be untitled to.

There will also be specialist debt, housing and welfare advisors available from Citizens Advice 

A spokesperson for Dorset Council said: "Your housing costs are a priority, and we're here to support you in managing them.

"We've teamed up with Citizens Advice and Shelter to provide you with free and confidential support.

"Reach out early to get the support you need."
