Cabinet annouces resilience funding South Gloucestershire Council’s Cabinet have approved a £1 million Resilience Support Fund to help support residents impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The pandemic has had a significant impact on local communities and a variety of schemes have been providing much needed financial support. However, with many requiring applicants to meet specific criteria, it has meant some people, who previously may have been just about managing but now are no longer able to, have not been able to access the support they need. South Gloucestershire Council Tax Relief and Welfare Grant schemes will continue to support those most disadvantaged by the pandemic, but continued financial pressures on residents during 2021/22 means there is a need to support their demonstrated resilience.
