All of thls also impacted on the staff dellverln8 the service5. We were able to offer both fuel and food vouchers to our dlents wlth not enou8h money to Ilve on throuBh other projects (such as Household Support Fund and the last of Energy Savlngs Trustl, although this had a s￿Ificant impact on the amount of work needing to be done In relatlon to admini5tratlon of the varlous projects.

Whilst some of thls work prove(I beneficial and some pre55ure was taken off the extensive quality of advice measures and revlews, the impact on the new contract wasrft as mueh as we would Ilke to have seen. Fundingfor the debt advice Sector contlnues to be a concern. As the MaPS fvndlng had so many challenges over the past few years, many debt advisers left the sertor.
