Are you struggling to meet the increasing costs of food, energy, water and other essential bills?

Westmorland & Furness Council have received £1million in Government funding to support low income households including families with children of all ages, pensioners, unpaid carers, care leavers and disabled people.

The fund will support residents with essential costs related to energy, food, water and essential wider costs. A sustainable contribution towards energy costs is particularly encouraged for example, the insulation of hot water tanks, fitting draft excluders to a door, or replacing inefficient lightbulbs or white goods.

Applications can be made online by 31st March 2024 or you can call the Welfare Team on 0300 373 3300.
