Household Support Grant

We would like to inform you of the Household Support Grant that has become available.  This is a grant to support local VCS groups, Parish Councils and similar organisations in delivering household essentials to vulnerable residents.

For example, providing food bags or shopping or energy vouchers.

This is similar to the Winter Grants that were available last year, however this year as well as food and warmth there are wider essentials that the  grant can cover.

Including but not limited to:

  • Food
  • Energy
  • Water
  • Sanitary products
  • Warm clothing
  • Soap
  • Blankets
  • Boiler service/repairs
  • Purchase of essential equipment including fridges, freezers, ovens, etc.
  • Support with other bills including broadband or phone bills, clothing
  • Essential transport related costs such as repairing a car, buying a bicycle or paying for fuel

The fund will be open for bids until the end of January
