Financial support offered by local councils

As household budgets for many people are severely under strain due to the cost-of-living crisis, many councils have made additional funds available to support those in need.

Please visit your council’s website to learn more.

If you have financial difficulties, struggle to pay your bills or need help to replace household appliances, we are here to help.

Through our new Helping Hand Fund, which is paid for by the Riverside Foundation as part of our partnership with the Riverside Group, we can provide small grants and other practical short-term support for households up to £500. Please call us on 0300 123 9966 or complete a self-referral form via your MyOneHousing account.
