Since the lockdown thousands of people have found themselves grappling with significantly reduced finances. Following widespread redundancies, the number claiming unemployment benefits in the UK soared to more than 2.1 million last month. Many other households have seen big drops in their income due to being furloughed or losing contract or part-time work.
