Local Green councillor Jon Molyneux has been supporting efforts to help local people most impacted by the ongoing cost of living crisis.
As Chair of the Pollokshields Area Partnership, Jon helped to secure almost £10,000 for community groups to help local residents struggling with rising bills. The lifeline funding has provided fuel card top-ups as well as supporting the Pollokshields Food Point and work in local schools.
Jon said:
"I have been proud to work in partnership with local community groups to get lifeline funds out over winter but it's scandalous that communities are paying the price for Brexit, Tory incompetence and Liz Truss' reckless premiership.”
"It's also vital to keep resisting austerity and showing there is an alternative and that means investing in our communities and building solidarity. As your local Green councillor I will keep working tirelessly to ensure a fairer deal for all."
