Managing your budget

If you are struggling to manage your household bills then there are a few ways you can try to help you feel more in control of your money. Completing a simple budget plan is the best way to do this.

You may also want to:

Keep a spending diary – check if what you actually spend matches what you think you spend
Use a calendar or diary to note down when payments are due as it may be possible to change payment dates so that they are in line with when you receive your money
Shop around for cheaper electricity and gas tariffs
Consider getting a water meter installed if you don’t use much water as it means you will only get charged for the water you use.
Check out practical ideas, tips and advice on how to make your money go further through Making Money Count

If you still find that you do not have enough to cover all of your outgoings then please contact our Money Matters Advisors who will be happy to look at your circumstances with you and try and help you to maximise your income by budgeting.
