Dear Parents

A Cash for Kids Grant is now available for families who may struggling at this time.

Please see below more about the grant.

According to the ‘Cash For Kids’ website:

“Cash for Kids has funds to support 2,800 children across Northern Ireland through the cost-of-living crisis, as part of £1 Million of Help we're distributing across the UK.

In response to the crisis hitting so many families right now we've launched this new fund, to provide emergency essentials that support the physical and mental well-being of children who are struggling.

These could include food, clothing and household energy costs, but we'll also consider anything that helps meet children's most basic needs.

Grants are £50 per child per household, and we aim to get the funds to families as soon as possible.

Please note that applications must come on behalf of a family from professionals within a governing body (e.g. social services, GP, teacher, charity, community group etc.) - families cannot apply directly.”
