Hardship Support
Because some families are facing additional financial challenges, Manchester City Council (MCC) want to provide support to families who need it the most.
MCC are providing a financial grant to parents and carers of the following groups of children and young people.
To qualify the family must be:
- A Manchester resident or supported by our Homelessness Service; and
- Whose family has been hardest hit by the recent issues and may be waiting for benefits to be assessed or have a gap in their income due to being laid off etc
-
We will be able to pay this money within a few days by the following methods:
- A bank transfer into a nominated bank account
- A secure text message that can be used to access cash from a range of Paypoint outlets in the city
- A voucher that can be printed and can then be exchanged for cash from a range of Paypoint outlets in the city
To make an application, families need to submit a request via the Council鈥檚 Welfare Provision Scheme
