A HUGE fund which gives hard-up households free cash and vouchers has been extended again. Families and individuals struggling with the cost of living will be able to apply for the Household Suppor…
It's likely that we'll see councils offer up similar examples of support when the scheme is renewed again in April.
Mims Davies, DWP minister for social mobility, youth and progression, said: "The Household Support Fund has already helped vulnerable families across England through these challenging times and I am pleased it will continue to do so for another full year. "This is just one part of our extensive and targeted £26 billion support package, which includes payments worth £900 for millions of people on benefits and additional support for disabled people and pensioners, whilst every household will continue to save money thanks to our Energy Price Guarantee."To get the help, you'll need to check if you need to apply via your local council - as they are in charge of distributing the funding.
Each council will have a different application process - so exact details on how to apply will vary depending on where you live.But, some councils won't require you to apply for the help and they'll contact you about any cash available if you qualify. If there's no information on your council's website, then it's best to ring them up and ask for more information.
