Crisis Grant

Crisis Grant

Overview

Crisis Grants, delivered through the Scottish Welfare Fund, are in place to help you cope with unexpected expenses until your get your next income.

Crisis Grants can also help if you've experienced a disaster, such as a fire or flood.

We can offer help with emergency living costs, such as:

  • food
  • fuel (gas and electricity)
  • toiletries
  • nappies

You can be awarded three grants within a rolling 12 month period. This is a government grant that you do not need to pay back.
