East Riding Household Support Fund for Oil Customers
Humber and Wolds Rural Action are administering the Household Support Fund for Oil Customers this winter, with it being aimed at low-income households within the East Riding area.
We are looking to target eligible households who use oil for heating, and we thought that circulating to Parish Councils could help get the information out to residents who could benefit from this scheme.
Below you can find a link to the website which includes full details, eligibility criteria and the application form.
The Household Support Fund aims to help vulnerable households in the East Riding with the rising cost of heating oil. Grants will be awarded to eligible residents and is aimed at low income households.
Please note that this fund is only available to East Riding residents.
On application if eligible, households will receive an oil delivery or the LPG alternative and free membership to the Bulk Oil Buying Scheme for the first year (normally £20 per year).

If you have any queries please contact HWRA on 07918 147006 or email: oil@hwrcc.org.uk

The ERYC Holiday Activities and Food Grants are currently open for both Christmas and Annual grants. This ensures that children who are in receipt of benefits related free school meals have access to high quality holiday provision as well as healthy and balanced meals.

Free activities for children and young people on the Council’s Holiday Activities and Food Programme
ERYC have requested Newport Parish Council to share some information about the Holiday Activities and Food programme (HAF). ERYC are into the second year of a 3-year Department for Education funded programme which enables children and young people who are in receipt of benefits related free school meals who attend an East Riding school to eat healthily and be active during the school holidays. There are over 40 HAF delivery partners organising fun activities across the East Riding throughout the 6-week summer holidays, with sessions lasting at least 4 hours and a meal is provided for each participant too. All of the programmes are inclusive, but ERYC also offer a specific programme of activities for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities.
ERYC recognise the pressures on low-income families particularly in the holiday period and ask for help in spreading the word about these free activities. Attached are some flyers of all the programmes.
If parents and carers see something they like, all they have to do is get in touch with the provider to secure their child’s place. All East Riding pupils in receipt of benefits related free school meals are able to attend a maximum of 16 activities for free in the summer holidays.
HAF is a targeted programme, so for everyone else who isn’t eligible, the school’s out website is starting to be populated with new sessions being added daily https://www.activeeastriding.co.uk/
