The Crisis and Resilience Fund

Housing Payments has now replaced Discretionary Housing Payments. These may be available to eligible residents requiring additional financial assistance with housing costs.

Housing Payments can be given to people who need extra help to pay their rent because either:

• the benefit they receive does not cover the whole amount
• they are subject to certain benefit reductions
• they need help paying for removal costs

For more information and to apply see Housing Payments.
