The information and links are divided into 6 sections covering Money, Business, Work, Housing, Family and General Advice in order to make it easer for users to find what they need.
The pages include details of how to access support from the Council, such as Council Tax Benefit as well as from other agencies like advice from the Citizen's Advice Bureau and information from Job Centre Plus.
Laszlo Zverko, West Berkshire Executive Councillor for Finance said: "By putting a significant amount of information in one place, I hope local people will be able to find the help they need quickly. We want to make sure that everyone knows where to go if they are facing financial difficulties and the most important thing is to get help as soon at a problem occurs."
The pages can be found by accessing www.westberks.gov.uk/recession and the information will be updated and added to as necessary. Free internet access is available at all West Berkshire Council Libraries.
