Application questions

Example responses are shown below to help you.

1. When did the sudden financial hardship begin?e.g. In November 2022, my family home was flooded. Unfortunately, I did not have home insurance.

2. How long do you think you will need support for?e.g. To get my house back to a liveable condition, the cost will be a one-off £900. If I was to rely on my monthly savings alone, it would take me 9 months to move back in. With some financial support, I can move my family back home sooner.

3. Was the sudden financial hardship triggered by a work-related or external/personal related event? Please elaborate if you have already done so in Q1 and Q2.e.g. Personal.

4. What kind of support are you looking for? Please tick one box.Financial support to purchase specific essentials (e.g. clothing, food)General financial supportFinancial adviseMental health supportOther

5. Please let us know what you have already done to help your situation.e.g. I have temporarily moved in with my in-laws to avoid paying rent. I have also requested an increase in hours at work for a 6 month period.

6. Are you eligible for any benefits or other forms of government support? A helpful website to check your eligibility is turn2us.org.uke.g. No, my income is just above the level for support.

7. Have you looked at support from anywhere else, e.g. community support, charities, family?
e.g. My family are supporting by providing temporary accommodation and wraparound childcare so I can work full time.

8. What are the implications if your current situation is not assisted in some way?
e.g. I can only continue staying with my in-laws for a few more weeks. If I cannot cover the costs of the essential repairs, I will have to sell my house and relocate my family to a completely different part of the country where the rent is more affordable. This is the primary reason why I'm so stressed.

9. Other than what you have answered above, do you have any other large financial commitments that are currently affecting your lifestyle?
e.g. Not really, car on HP, usual bills and mortgage.
