Household Support Fund 5 2024/25
Wiltshire Council was provided with
£5,457,313 in 2023/24 of government funding (Department for
Work and Pensions). The Fund (known as the Household Support Fund

otherwise struggle to buy food or pay essential utility bills or
meet other essential living costs to help them with significantly
