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)
  • essential living expenses that can help towards toiletries, cleaning products and nappies

This is a government grant that you do not need to pay back.
