Support In Ealing
Ealing council has a range of support for those struggling with the rising costs. There is currently lots of support available including help with managing your finances.
The borough also has an online digital hub which provides information and support guides on how to access key services.
Local Welfare Assistance
Local welfare assistance is a discretionary support scheme. The fund is there to help people to try to maintain an independent life or for those facing an immediate financial crisis.
The local welfare assistance team can also help with debt advice, budgeting and improving chances of finding a job. Your financial award may be dependent on you attending a session to help in these areas.
