Survey on cost of living crisis

Many people in Bristol are under pressure due to a steep rise in food and fuel prices. In April, there will be an additional hit on people's disposable income as energy prices, water bills, council tax and National Insurance tax are also expected to increase.

To understand the situation better, I’ve set up this survey. Please take 5 minutes to tell me your concerns around cost of living and how I can help.

I also plan to hold an event in the coming weeks, where a group of experts from support agencies, charities, and government bodies will share advice on the various avenues of support available to people. Do share your details in the below form, if you think such an event will be of use to you, and you would like to participate.

Please be assured that this is completely anonymous. I will only use this data for compiling an anonymised report on the cost of living crisis in my constituency of Bristol West. If you would like me to take up your specific case more publicly, please send me an email (in addition to completing this survey) if you have not already done so.

Please feel free to share this survey on social media or via email.

NOTE: I can only take up cases in my constituency of Bristol West (check here: https://members.parliament.uk/FindYourMP). If you live outside Bristol West, please contact your MP directly.
