Bristol Evening Post has launched a campaign called Bristol Fights Back to help us all ride out the current economic storm.

Whether you have a family or you are running your own business we are here to help you.

There is no ignoring the fact that, for some, there will be difficult times ahead as the worst of the recession bites, but help is at hand to save families hundreds of pounds a year from everyday household bills and expense.

We will be looking at ways of saving you money in a range of areas including food, bills and travel. And we will be offering advice on personal finance.

The Lord Mayor of Bristol, Councillor Christopher Davies, said: “It’s great for the people of Bristol that the Evening Post is doing this."

“It is inevitable that Bristol will feel some affect from the countrywide recession, but I’m confident that a city as vibrant, talented and resilient as ours is more than equipped to weather the worst of the financial storm.”
