New Crisis & Resilience Fund

West Northamptonshire Council has launched the Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) – a new, three‑year programme funded by the UK Government to help residents with financial wellbeing.

The CRF brings together four connected strands of support:

  • Crisis Support – short‑term help for sudden emergencies only
  • Housing Support – help with essential housing costs
  • Resilience Support – tools and advice for everyday money worries
  • Community Support – support available through trusted local places

While Crisis Support is available for a small number of urgent situations, most residents will be better supported through Resilience, Housing or Community services.
