Are you finding it difficult to fund heating oil purchase
Lincolnshire Community Foundation has recently launched the Crisis & Resilience Fund – Oil Support, part of a UK Government initiative delivered locally by Lincolnshire County Council. The fund offers eligible households a one-off £300 voucher to help with heating oil costs, with over 5,000 households across Lincolnshire expected to benefit.
As many eligible residents may be digitally isolated or unaware of the funding, Parish and District Councils play a vital role in helping ensure this information reaches those most in need.
