Our Financial Support Fund is there to help residents who have been significantly affected by the increase in cost of living, are experiencing financial hardship or who are in financial crisis
The aim of our fund is to offer timely assistance to residents who are in immediate financial difficulty. The fund offers emergency financial assistance when you are unable to access any other funding within the time needed.
It can also be used to help you if you are having trouble affording electricity or gas bills, putting food on the table and other basic household essentials, including white goods.
