Introduction

The £421 million Household Support Fund extension was made available from 1 April to 30 September 2022 to support those most in need across England with the cost of:

  • food
  • energy
  • water
  • other essential living needs

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) provided funding to county councils and unitary authorities, including metropolitan councils and London boroughs (“the Authorities”), under section 31 of the Local Government Act 2003. The Authorities administered the scheme to provide assistance to vulnerable families with children, pensioners and other vulnerable households during the grant period. In line with previous Household Support Fund grants, the Barnett formula was applied in the usual way for the devolved administrations.

152 county councils and unitary authorities in England participated. The guidance enabled them to deliver the scheme through a variety of routes, including issuing grants to third parties, providing vouchers to households, or direct provision. County councils were encouraged to work together with district councils to provide support and ensure the funding met its objectives.

The conditions of the scheme required that at least 33.33% of expenditure should be spent on support for “Households with children” and at least 33.33% on “Households with pensioners”. Additionally, the grant was primarily allocated to support with the costs of food, energy, water and other essential living needs as described in the grant determination terms below:

a) the Authority must ensure that:

i) at least 33.33% of the grant is allocated to support households that include:

  • a person who will be under the age of 19 as at 30 September 2022, or

  • a person aged 19 or over in respect of whom a child-related benefit is paid or free school meals are provided during the Grant Period

ii) at least 33.33% of the grant is allocated to support households that include a person who has reached state pension age by 30 September 2022

iii) up to 33.33% of the grant is used to assist other households

b) the Authority is to ensure that the grant is primarily allocated to support with the costs of food, energy (for heating, lighting and cooking), water (for household purposes, including sewerage) and other essential living needs in accordance with the Scheme guidance;

c) in exceptional circumstances of genuine emergency, the Authority may allocate grant funds to support with housing costs as set out in the Scheme guidance.

The grant was announced on GOV.UK.

About these statistics

The figures shown in this release are from the statement of spend (as of 16 December 2022) from the 152 English Authorities which participated in the Household Support Fund programme. At the time of delivery, Cumbria County Council was still acting as a single Unitary Authority. The template for returning details of spend, the grant determination (describing the terms of the grant) and detailed guidance were published on GOV.UK.

Table 1 shows the Authorities’ grant allocations and each Authority’s reported spend, the number of awards made, as well as the percentages of the award spent split by household types and the administration of the scheme for the period 1 April 2022 to 30 September 2022.

Table 2 shows the percentages of the award spent split by the eligible spend categories (for example, food, energy and water, etc.) for the same period.

Statement of application of the Code of Practice for Statistics

The Code of Practice for Statistics (the Code) is built around 3 main concepts, or pillars:

  • trustworthiness – is about having confidence in the people and organisations that publish statistics
  • quality – is about using data and methods that produce statistics
  • value – is about publishing statistics that support society’s needs

The following explains how we have applied the pillars of the Code in a proportionate way.

Trustworthiness

The figures were created following interest from Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) ministers and Members of Parliament. We were unable to restrict access to the data ahead of the publication as the data has been used internally as Management Information (MI). They are being published now in order to give equal access to all those with an interest in them.

Quality

The data which underpins this information is taken directly and solely from the Statements of Spend returned to DWP by participating Authorities and the published grant determination for the scheme. DWP liaised with Authorities to validate the returns. Analysis of the Authority returns has undergone review by analysts and internal audit. The MI has also been reviewed and approved by the scheme’s project design group.

Value

Releasing this information serves the increased public interest in how Authorities have used grant funding from DWP to support those most in need during the final stages of economic recovery. The figures also help reduce the administrative burden of answering parliamentary questions, Freedom of Information requests and other forms of ad hoc enquiry and serves public interest.
