Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF)
Applications for these funding opportunities close at midnight on Tuesday 23 June, 2026.
The Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF) is a new scheme, funded by the UK government to support:
- low-income households who encounter a financial shock
- activity that builds financial resilience
The Crisis and Resilience Fund is a new way for the Voluntary, Community, Social Enterprise (VCSE) sector to be involved in supporting residents to enable households to better manage future financial shocks and reduce the need for crisis support.
We've developed a number of grant opportunities evidenced from the delivery and outcomes of the Household Support Fund (HSF) and in line with the Empowering You in Swale Strategy.
