The Department of Work & Pensions have provided a fund to County Councils and Unitary Authorities across England under the ‘COVID Winter Grant Scheme’. The aim is to support vulnerable households with the cost of fuel or food due to the continuing hardships caused by Covid-19.
Citizens Advice South Hams are working on behalf of Devon County Council to help Devon residents in need. They are able to provide vouchers, top up smart meters online, or make payments to online fuel accounts.
So if you think you, or someone you know, could benefit from this scheme, get in touch with Citizens Advice South Hams. But don’t delay – the scheme ends on 31st March.
