Heating oil support

Following the recent government announcement, extra Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) support is currently available for residents who are close to running out of fuel and cannot afford to buy more.

Who can apply

You may be eligible if:

• you live full time in West Northamptonshire
• heating oil is your main way of heating your home
• your tank is 150 litres or less (priority for households under 100 litres)
• you cannot afford a minimum oil delivery
• you are at immediate risk of losing the ability to heat your home

This scheme is for urgent needs only and cannot help with general cost of living pressures or long-term affordability issues.

For more information, visit the support website.
