Please don't close this very valuable service to the community !! South wigston is deprived and overlooked when it comes to spending money or improving it in any way it would be a disaster to close helping hands we have lost a great deal of things in south wigston over the years this service is very valuable to the local community

Losing this would mean more pressure on other council services as people get desperate for help.

These people are good people. They have helped me so much in the past especially when my husband. passed away. We must support their continuance.

This is a vital resource in a society of reducing areas of support. There is a misguided view that everyone can and should access information via the Internet. This is simplistic especially in light of complex Benefits, ever changing eligibility for services whether social care or Housing. For many people access (via computers and Internet) to advice and support on a number of counts is problematic.

I run the South Wigston foodbank , helping hands comes to every session to give help and advice. The loss of this service would be a travesty. We have had many referrals from them and with the new universal benefits starting next January a lot of people will be disadvantaged by not having this service.

The council/goverment should be providing this service.

This service keeps helping those in need and would be greatly missed.
