Household support fund

[Emmap25]

Has anyone received the £300 household support fund yet?

Have you applied to your LA for it? I don't think it's an automatic thing?

As above, it's almost certainly not automatic although there is a fair amount of flexibility as to how Councils operate it.

It's automatic where I live, but they only give it to people who have been identified by 'frontline services' and you can't apply for it. It's awful and a lot of people who need it most and are unsupported are falling through the cracks.

I’ve been told im getting it I just wondered if anyone had received it yet as im not sure when it comes

In our area you have to be referred by a charity or similar and is certainly nowhere near £300 !

Our council only allows you to have one had one last year this year it’s money advice only.sal
