The Household Support Fund is continuing to support those that are hardest hit by the cost of living crisis.

If you or someone you live with uses specialist medical equipment and have high energy costs due to this, you could be eligible for up to £250 towards your energy bills.

The fund can be used to support children and adults who rely on high energy consuming medical equipment to meet their health needs. The equipment includes ventilators, dialysis machines, oxygen concentrators or feeding pumps.

To apply, individuals can make a self-referral or be referred by a professional body. For more information or to apply please visit the Household Support Fund Page. 

The Household Support Fund is funded through the Department of Work and Pensions
