Tackling Need, Building Strong Communities

We support individuals and families on low income with a grant to help with the costs of gas and electricity; and voluntary sector organisations to provide services and activities for people in need. We are here to give our communities the chance to create a brighter future and the opportunity to thrive. Since 1811, we have given grants, advice and support to our local communities. This will continue and together we can build a happy, healthy and hopeful community.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

The Hampton fuel grant is an absolute lifeline..
I would not be able to pay my bills without it ..
With so much to worry about with prices constantly rising, this grant takes away a large chunk of pressure from my shoulders and is so appreciated,  thank you..

Receiving the Hampton Fund fuel grant is such a huge weight off my mind, it reduces a lot of anxiety that I feel I would otherwise not be able to cover my energy bill. And helps me to be a calmer parent. I am so grateful for the support you provide.

Thank you so much for the electricity grant. You have no idea what a difference this makes. I can face the winter now without worry and knowing I can have the heating on
