You are in the right place and you are not alone. Even if we can’t directly help you, we will go out of our way to signpost you to other available support that you are able to access. Please see our other resources that might be helpful.

Please note that our funding is currently limited and will be based on a first come first served basis. Although you may apply for a funding, you are not guaranteed a grant if the funding runs out BUT we promise we will support you in any other ways we can.

We have been known to source items needed by the older people who have come to us (such as washing machines and fridge freezers) free of charge through our friends at The Clear Out Co. We can also offer help to access legal support, as well as signposting people to other support channels.

To be eligible for an Older Person Grant to support you with the cost of living, you must:

• 70 years old or older
• Live in the UK

TO APPLY: We work in partnership with the Community Foundation for Staffordshire and Shropshire who do all the checks and due diligence on our behalf. Please apply here.
