Households Support Fund 2025: UK Families Urged to Apply
- Local councils throughout England are distributing financial assistance of up to one thousand pounds to help households manage living costs, funded by the £742 million Household Support Fund.
- The fund aims to assist residents facing financial hardship and requires applicants to provide income proof and explain steps taken to improve finances.
- Support varies by area and includes direct payments, supermarket vouchers, and aid from community groups, with specific deadlines set locally.
- For instance, Portsmouth residents experiencing financial difficulties have until 12 noon on June 12 to request a single hardship payment of up to £1,000, with the amount determined by household size.
- This fund highlights ongoing cost of living pressures and underscores a postcode lottery effect as eligibility and timelines differ widely across councils.
