Crisis Payments are intended to meet exceptional, short-term needs and cannot provide a regular or alternative source of income.
In determining the value and type of financial support to offer, we will thoroughly evaluate individual household circumstances and needs.
Crisis Payments can be made in a variety of methods including:
- cash payments
- supermarket and utility vouchers
- tangible physical items
Once the application and required supporting documents are all received, we aim to confirm awards within two working days.
