    You can contact your local Authority and ask about the Household Support Fund. It's extra money the Government have given LA this year to help low income families. Whether he'll receive any help will depend on his fiancial circumstances. Details here. https://www.gov.uk/cost-living-help-local-council (if he lives in a different LA to you then you will need to contact his LA and not yours)

    Hello @Hearn1958

    Welcome to the community! :) I'd also have a look on Turn2Us to see what grants you may be eligible for :)
