A new scheme is being launched by the government to help people in financial crisis.

It's called the Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) and will replace the Household Support Fund and our current Crisis & Care Awards scheme from April 1 this year.

The CRF is designed to provide support to low-income households experiencing a sudden financial crisis, such as an unexpected expense or loss of income.

More details about Cornwall’s CRF scheme will be published shortly.

Please note that all automatic Household Support Fund payments have now been issued and there will be no further payments under this scheme.
