January can feel like a real squeeze after the festive season, and many people find themselves feeling stressed about money, routines, and getting back on track. If that’s you, you’re not alone — and there are gentle, practical steps that can help.
A few things that can make a difference:
• Focusing on essential spending first
• Checking what support is available locally this month
• Taking small, manageable steps rather than trying to fix everything at once
• Choosing simple, low‑cost ways to spend time as a family
• Being kind to yourself — this time of year is tough for many
