Update on the Household Support Fund administered by Warwickshire’s Local Welfare Scheme

Through the Household Support Fund, the Local Welfare Scheme will once again be distributing automatic support towards fuel and food costs to parents/carers of children in Warwickshire schools/settings who are eligible for benefits related FSM  

They will be receiving the following in the form of automatic voucher payments:  

• From Friday 25th March, an automatic PayPoint cash voucher will be issued to each eligible household to the value of £60 to be used towards energy costs.   
• For the Easter school holiday, an automatic Huggg supermarket voucher will be issued to parents/carers to the value of £42 per eligible child for 14 days inclusive of the weekend (11th to 22nd April) 
• We will follow the same process as previously and will send out letters to you next week to share with parents/carers.   
• We can confirm that we will not need schools to send in updated pupil data.  If you do have any queries, please email the Local Welfare Scheme Mailbox at localwelfarescheme@warwickshire.gov.uk
