Household support fund
Read about how we will use the Household Support Fund, who will benefit, and how we will contact you about getting extra support.
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.
You can now make applications if you have a disability or have a child with a disability - read more about who is eligible and how to apply.
