We offer Household Fund grants to residents of Derby, covering essential items such as cookers, furniture and clothing to help local families in need. Grants awarded are usually up to £150, but can go above £300 for white goods and bunk beds only, depending on market value. Referrals must be made via a local agency worker, such as a social worker, health visitor or family support worker. The agent is responsible for the administration of the grant. We are unable to consider applications made directly by an individual claimant. Grants are limited to one application within a 24 month period.

The Janet Till Crisis Fund is intended to cover emergency situations where people are in immediate hardship or distress. We provide assistance with one-off grants to help with the cost of electricity, gas, and food. Where the applicant has a pre-payment meter, the Trust will top this up using a PayPoint voucher. Please supply us with the details of their energy supplier. If paying by Direct Debit, a copy of their latest bill will need to be submitted to enable us to make payment directly into their utility account. Vouchers are also awarded for food. Grants are limited to one application within a 24 month period. As with the Household Fund, grants can only be made via a local agency worker.
