Swindon Assistance Fund
From April 2026 the Swindon Assistance Fund becomes part of the Crisis and Resilience Fund.
The government provides this funding to councils to support low-income households who face a financial shock, and to support work that helps build individual and community financial resilience.
More information is available on our Crisis and Resilience Fund page.
