Financial hardship grants

A personal crisis can impact your finances at any time.

We know the difference a grant can make when the unexpected happens and you need help to pay for something that you cannot cover from your usual income. Financial assistance can help you to regain control over your money and ensure that you are not living without essential items. 

If you or your partner have worked in the caravan or leisure vehicle industry for over 12 months then you may be eligible for a financial grant to help when a crisis happens. 

Grants are assessed on a case by case basis and are completely confidential. You will need to supply evidence along with your application, it is really helpful to have this ready, to speed up your application. 

We aim to process all applications within 7 - 10 days. 

We are not usually able to pay off debts, if you have or are worried about debt problems, contact our debt partners Payplan, who will be able to provide practical advice and solutions to debt problems. 

In a crisis where for example you are about to be evicted or lose your home,  we may be able to support you with a crisis grant to alleviate the immediate threat. 

How we can help. 

These are the types of things that we can provide grants for: 

• White goods (cooker, washing machine, fridges and freezers)
