Lincolnshire Community Foundation are delighted to be working with West Lindsey District Council to provide vital funds across the District. Grants of up to £300 will be given to individuals and families, who have not received any cost of living support across the District. Funding originates from UK Government via the West Lindsey Household Support Scheme.

We recognise there are many households across the area who are finding themselves in financial hardship or just about managing, but do not qualify for any other benefit or income support. Support will be given predominantly in the form of vouchers for food, energy (no cash grants are given).

Katie Littlewood, Lincolnshire Community Foundation, Grants Manager for this fund says:

"The Foundation has been invited to continue working with West Lindsey District Council to support people who haven’t been entitled to Government’s cost of living payments. We understand what a difficult time this is for many and will do what we can to help."

Councillor Trevor Young, Leader of West Lindsey District Council says:

"West Lindsey is pleased to be working with the Lincolnshire Community Foundation to support the delivery of the Housing Support Fund applications."

Applications can be made via the Lincolnshire Community Foundation website from 11 August 2023 until 18 March 2024. If you do not have access to the website, please contact the Grants team on 01529 305825 or email katie@lincolnshirecf.co.uk
