Tackling the cost of living – special coverage from Sunderland

As we all face soaring prices, BBC News is talking to people across the UK about how they are coping with the financial pressures and providing support and advice on saving money from our experts.

Today we’re reporting from Sunderland in north-east England. Unemployment levels are higher here compared to the rest of the UK and workers earn less than people in other parts of the country.

We’ll be hearing from households, businesses and families about how the rise in living costs is affecting them.

You’ll be able to follow this across the BBC – whether that’s here on the website, on BBC Breakfast and the News Channel, or on Radio 5 Live and Radio 1’s Newsbeat.

Later we’ll bring you coverage of a special programme hosted by Nicky Campbell exploring issues and solutions – you’ll be able to watch that at the top of this page.
