Social care workers have warned that spiralling fuel costs could force them out of their jobs.
Local workers are reporting having to pay bills of up to £200 a month for visiting clients, leaving some questioning whether they can afford to work.
One private sector Helensburgh carer, who asked to remain anonymous, said: “I have noticed over the past couple of weeks, I am putting more and more in and basically getting nothing back for it.
“Before the prices were rising, I was spending £42 on a tank, now it’s more like £150 a week.

“Sometimes it is a 60-mile round trip to see a client.
“It’s getting to the stage where I am thinking, ‘can I actually afford to work’?”
Another carer, who has worked with the same private company for five years, added: “I love the job. It’s a great job.
“It’s really rewarding especially when you are going to visit people who are lonely and you are their only contact with the outside world. It’s phenomenal.
“You want to help, you want to make a difference but we are understaffed and 25p a mile doesn’t really cut it.
“I used to be able to put a couple of quid back into my savings a month for a rainy day but I can’t do that anymore.

The social care workers took their concerns to Dumbarton MSP Jackie Baillie, who said their situation highlights the need for a minimum wage of £15 per hour in the care sector.
Ms Baillie says she has written to the Cabinet Secretary as social care workers in the private sector are often delivering public sector contracts.

Historic Comedy Store, Birthplace of Comedians David Letterman, Jim Carrey and More, Turns 50
Todd Gilchrist The Comedy Store turns 50 this year, and it’s now known as a storied birthplace for the careers of literally hundreds of comedians — from David Letterman to Jim Carrey to Whoopi Goldberg to Sebastian Maniscalco.The late co-founder and longtime owner Mitzi Shore always envisioned the historic institution on L.A.’s Sunset Boulevard as an “artists colony,” a protected enclave where young talent could grow without worrying about money, consequently she mostly didn’t either.When Peter Shore came to Los Angeles in 2002 from Portland, Ore., to keep an eye on the business while his mother, Mitzi, convalesced, he and Bob Wheeler, the Store’s chief financial officer, would spend the next 10 years correcting the questionable decisions made decades in the past. “It is really just about preserving the place by any means necessary,” Shore tells Variety.Shore, who rarely agrees to interviews, was driven as much by how important the place is to thousands of comics who have come through its doors over the past five decades, and the millions of audiences that came night after night to see them, as it was to his mother, who passed away in 2018 at age 87.
