 The fund closes today, Friday 27 February, so this is the final chance to apply.

This support is for people who may not receive means‑tested benefits but are still finding it difficult to cover essential daily living costs.
The payment can help with:
- food and supermarket essentials
- energy and heating bills
- other essential household costs
