Household Support Fund

Test Valley Borough Council has received funding from Hampshire County Council to distribute food vouchers to Housing Benefit and Council Tax Support claimants later this year.

Supermarket vouchers will be issued as follows:

• £80 voucher for each household which is in receipt of Housing Benefit and does not receive Council Tax Support

• £50 voucher for each household which is in receipt of Council Tax Support

There is no need to apply for your food voucher. If you are eligible, the Council will contact you in October 2023 with instructions on how to redeem your voucher.

Additional funding has also been received for the period September 2023-March 2024 to assist vulnerable households who require assistance with significantly rising housing costs. If you are struggling to afford to stay in your home, please contact the Housing Options team on 01264368000 or email housingoptions@testvalley.gov.uk for more information.
