Money Wellness has announced that it has launched a free household bills calculator to help households prepare for April bill increases with households set to see essential bills rise on average by around £660 a year on 1st April.
The tool will let users input their current household expenses to receive a personalised forecast showing price increases for energy, council tax, water, broadband and mobile phone, food, TV licence and car tax.
Sebrina McCullough, External Director at Money Wellness, said “With multiple household costs rising, having access to simple, practical financial tools is more important than ever.
“Our new interactive calculator makes it easy for people to understand exactly how these increases will affect their budget, allowing them to take proactive steps to stay on top of their finances.
“These rises will be a real concern for millions of families already struggling, placing significant strain on household budgets. It’s important those in financial difficulty are aware there’s support available. We can help with creating a budget, finding a suitable debt solution, accessing grants, social tariffs and support schemes, and making sure people are claiming all the financial assistance they’re entitled to.”
