Susan Wallwork, Fenland District Council's Conservative portfolio holder for communities, said: "We know the cost of living remains a challenge and this is a chance to pick up some tips useful to everyone.
"There will be help and information for those who are really struggling as well as handy tips relevant for all households and details of support people might be entitled to and missing out on.
"We welcome everyone to come along."
According to the government's indices of deprivation 2019, Fenland was the most deprived district in Cambridgeshire.
