Apply for the Household Support Fund

Due to an unprecedented demand for the West Berkshire Council Household Support Fund, all grant funding has been committed and we are currently closed to applications. We are awaiting further information around additional funding from DWP.

We will resume taking applications when the next round of funding from central government is received, along with its guidance.

You can find the government announcement on the next round of funding can be found on GOV.UK here.

The government have not currently currently not provided a date for when the funding will be made available. When this is known, we will make the information available on this page.

In the interim, we can make referrals to the following services for support:

  • West Berkshire Foodbank (food and basic household items)
  • Community Furniture Project (assistance with white goods)
  • Centre for Sustainable Energy (assistance for energy bills)
  • Cowshed (for clothing)

If any of the methods of support would be beneficial for you, please contact the Household Support Fund by email at HSF@westberks.gov.uk for a referral.
