Boilerplate

SupportFund helps UK households find financial support they could be missing. Its free support checker scans council, government and hardship support to identify benefits, grants, discounts, bill help and local assistance that households may be entitled to — including support that standard benefit calculators can miss. Alongside its free public tools and extensive Advice Hub, SupportFund gives households a free account to keep support organised, track applications and see what to do next. SupportFund also publishes household-finance data, research and local-support information through its Media & Research Centre.
