The new Household Support Fund is now available. Use the web link above and click on Apply for the Household Support Fund  to apply

Once you have submitted your application do not contact us for at least 28 days to give us time to process your claim. If you need to provide further evidence or information, then please provide this by replying to the email we sent you when you submitted your application. 

Please note that due to limited funding, if you have received an award from the fund within the last six months, you will not receive another award at this time. Any applications received will be refused. This is so that we can help as many of our residents as possible.

To see what other support may be available to you please visit our support directory  on South Hams District Council website or call 01803 861234.
