Oldham Crisis and Resilience Fund | Support for individuals

- Reduced working hours
- Delays in receiving benefits - Emergencies or disasters
- Fire, flooding, or major damage to your home - Essential breakdowns
- Broken boiler
- Loss of critical appliances (e.g. fridge, cooker)
- Essential medical equipment failure - Health or family crisis
- Sudden illness
- Mental health emergency
- Taking on caring responsibilities - Domestic abuse
- Leaving an abusive situation & needing urgent support - Theft or loss
- Money or essential belongings being stolen or lost
Eligibility
