💨 Abstract

The Household Support Fund (HSF) provides £742 million to English councils to help struggling families. Enfield Council, for instance, has allocated £5 million for fridges, freezers, washing machines, and financial aid for essential costs like food and energy bills from April 2025 to March 2026. Eligibility is based on low income, benefits, or vulnerability, with required documentation and a one-award-per-household policy.
