The cost of living crisis is a term used to describe the rising costs of everyday essentials, including food and energy, which have had an impact on everyone’s disposable income.
It's been happening since late 2021, mostly because of inflation. It’s left many people struggling financially.
Many people in the UK have less money to spend on recreational activities (like buying clothes and eating out), and are struggling to pay their bills, rent and insurance.
The cost of insurance has risen over the past few years, whether it's for your car, home, pets or something else.
This is because of a range of reasons, including inflation and the rising cost of claims.
