Financial support will be on its way before Christmas to thousands of eligible households to help cover the costs of food and energy bills this winter.
This latest, one-off winter payment is due to be paid to more than 32,000 households who need help the most.
Nottinghamshire County Council continues to work with district and borough councils to help ease some of the financial worries for residents who are struggling to make ends meet, thanks to phase six of the Government’s £5.6 million Household Support Fund (HSF) which runs between 1 October 2024 to 31 March 2025.
Those who will continue to benefit from this support include families with children eligible for Free School Meals or equivalent, those in receipt of Pension Credit, as well as other households and individuals who have been identified by social workers in need of financial support.
