Household Support Fund - extra help for those most in need

The Household Support Fund 5, funded through the UK Government Department for Work and Pensions, is to support households in the most need with food, energy and water bills. 

It aims to help households that will not benefit from other government schemes, such as cost-of-living payments.

The fund will close on 30 September 2024, or when the funds are spent.

Contact your district or borough council to apply

For eligibility criteria and how to apply, contact your local district or borough council:

The Household Support Fund also supports local services, including food banks, local charities and services for families and children. If you are struggling to pay for food, energy or other essentials it is important that you contact an organisation or service you trust.
