The Household Support Fund aims to provide crisis support to vulnerable households, helping with the huge rise in living costs. The fund is provided by the Department for Works and Pensions (DWP).
Islington has been allocated £2,218,159.62 for 1 April 2024 to 30 September 2024.
Islington Council will use this fund to support households in the most need – particularly those who may not be eligible for the other support the Government has made available, including its Cost of Living payments.
We are currently finalising the delivery plan for the Household Support Fund and will provide more details once available.
In the meantime you can find out more cost-of-living support on our webpages, as well as from other organisations below:
