SHAL has a fund available to help. It’s called the Rainbow Fund. It started during the pandemic and continues to support people who are struggling financially. You may be eligible for a one-off payment for things like essential white goods and furniture, food and utilities.
Applications can only be made after we’ve completed and income and expenditure form and benefit entitlement check with you. We may refer you to other assistance schemes before awarding a grant from the Rainbow Fund. All applications will be considered in line with the Rainbow Fund policy.
- Each applicant must complete an income and expenditure form and benefit entitlement check first
- Applications are limited to 1 per year up to a maximum of £250
- Applications for essential furniture and white goods are limited to 1 every 2 years. The items will be purchased and gifted to the applicant
Please get in touch if you’re struggling financially and we can talk you through the application process.
