Media request from BBC News: are you struggling with rising costs?

[NicolaDMumsnet]

Hi everyone,

We've received the following media request.

Thanks,
MNHQ.

'BBC Breakfast TV are looking to do some pre-recorded filming with a working family next Wednesday the 28th with our presenter Ben Boulos. It is for a piece we’re pulling together ahead of the Chancellor’s Spring Budget announcement on the 6th of March. The main areas we’d want covering is how they’re coping with rising costs, what have they had to cut back on or change, family life (e.g. using after school clubs more so working hours can be increased) or child care costs if kids are young and what financial measures they’d like to hear announced in the budget that could help them. We’re keen to hear from any kind of working family and can be relatively flexible on location and timing. If interested, please contact Star at [email protected].'
