Free money coaching is launching in Romsey to help people with the cost of living.
Freedom Church in Romsey, along with Romsey Baptist Church, has partnered with charity Christians Against Poverty (CAP) to provide expert financial education in the local community.
Money coach Debs Niblett said: "With the soaring cost of living over the last few years, we’ve seen how important it is that people know how to successfully manage their money, whatever their income.
"It’s vital that we know how to balance what we have, save for emergencies, and stay out of debt."
The free course will run over four weeks at Romsey Baptist Church, with the first session taking place on Tuesday, May 13 at 7.30pm.

The course will look at building and balancing a household budget, prioritising spending, and keeping finances stable in the future.
Ms Niblett said: "Money coaching isn’t just about getting to grips with money practically – it’s about helping people find the freedom that comes with being in control of their finances.
"It can impact mental health, physical health, relationships, work life, and self-belief.
"Plus, there’s an amazing sense of achievement when you reach a goal, like finally being able to buy something you’ve been saving up for.
"Managing money well can be so rewarding."
She added: "There’s something for everyone to learn – from those who have never used a budget before to those who simply want to re-evaluate their financial situation.
"All are welcome, and dessert will be served to help sweeten the evening further."
