Last week (8/11) MP for Buckingham Greg Smith spoke to Secretary of State for Work and Pensions Thérèse Coffey about the Bucks Councils helping hand service available to people struggling in the county.
The council has received £2,399,191 from a £500 million pot set up by the government to help vulnerable people in the coming months.
With their funding, Bucks Council set up the Helping Hand scheme.
Thérèse Coffey joined Greg Smith in congratulating the Council for the scheme.
