Household Support Fund
Funding is being provided by the UK Government for the Household Support Fund (HSF6) up to March 2025. This is to help the most vulnerable households with the cost of essentials such as food and utilities.
The new Household Support Fund is now available. Please apply at the link below.
Once you have submitted your application do not contact us for at least 28 days to give us time to process your claim. If you need to provide further evidence or information, then please provide this by replying to the email we sent you when you submitted your application. The main cause of a delay in processing the application is the evidence of your bank account, to make a payment to you we need to ensure the bank account details you have put on your application form are correct. Make sure you upload your account statement which matches the bank account details which you have stated on your application.
Please note that due to limited funding, if you have received an award from the fund within the last six months, you will not receive another award at this time. Any applications received will be refused. This is so that we can help as many of our residents as possible.
