Please be advised that the Hardship Grant Community Fund scheme is currently paused for new enquiries whilst the team work through the waiting list.
The Hardship
Grant Community Fund will operate until 31st March 2026, allowing ample time
for eligible residents to apply.
If you have
submitted a successful enquiry since the current scheme opened on 23rd
June 2025, you are on the waiting list and will be contacted within the next four
weeks to complete your full application.
Please be
patient whilst the team work through the waiting list. Additionally, please
ensure that you have your voicemail turned on, so the team can leave you a
message if you miss our call, and that your phone accepts calls from
withheld/private numbers.
Please
note that the enquiries will reopen in late July 2025. If you are not currently
on the waiting list, or it has now been 12 months since your household last
received a grant payment, you will be able to submit a new enquiry once
enquiries resume in late July 2025.
