Struggling to afford a cooker or fridge? We can help

Being furloughed, losing a job during the Covid-19 pandemic or having to work fewer hours for less money has had a huge impact on some of our tenants.

That’s why supporting you through the pandemic, and the upcoming cost of living increases, is one of our top priorities, and we have set up a White Goods & Furniture Fund to help.

How to apply

Tenants can apply to the fund to buy key items such as a fridge, cooker, washing machine or table and chairs.

You can speak to your Neighbourhood Coordinator about applying for the fund or email Habinteg Direct at direct@habinteg.org.uk.

Neighbourhood teams will review applications before submitting them to the Tenant Panel for approval.

Proud to help

Habinteg’s Business Support Manager, Richard Hargrave, said: “Where tenants are experiencing financial hardship due to the pandemic and the rising cost of living, we’re proud to be able to offer some support with essential household items.

Our fund is open to applications, and we encourage tenants facing difficulties to apply.”
