Crisis and Resilience Fund launched by West Northants Council

Posted 3 hours ago in West Northamptonshire Council

West Northants Council’s Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) has launched and will run from 1 April 2026 to 31 March 2029. The fund has been established as a replacement to the Household Support Fund and aims to ensure people can access fast crisis support, stable housing assistance and longer-term advice to improve financial confidence and resilience. As our three-year CRF programme develops, WNC will be working on measures to strengthen referral pathways, bring community support services together and improve coordination between local partners.

In the meantime, if you are aware of any residents who are in need of crisis support or want to feel more in control of their finances and better able to manage changes in their circumstances, please signpost them to the website for assistance and to check eligibility.
