Crisis and Resilience Fund policy

6.1 To assess an application, the Council will require supporting evidence, including but not limited to:

• recent bank statements
• evidence of reduced income or employment changes
• unexpected essential expenditure, for example emergency household repairs
• confirmation that the applicant cannot access HAF provision if relevant

6.2 This evidence ensures Crisis Payments are used only to address verified, immediate financial crises in line with CRF guidance.
