Winter Hardship Fund

We have launched a new hardship fund to help people who are struggling to cover the high fuel costs during the winter.

To be eligible you must: 

  • be aged 66 or over on 23 September 2024 and will not receive a winter fuel payment from the department for Work and Pensions (DWP).
  • not be in receipt of Council Tax Support or Housing Benefit from the Council. If you receive either and are aged 66 or over on 23 September 2024, you will be sent a payment automatically by the Council and do not need to complete this form.
