Financial Support
A new fund has been launched to help residents living in Attenborough, Beeston & Chilwell and areas of Bramcote covered by the Attenborough, Beeston & Chilwell Area Mutual Aid group. This fund is available for all residents to apply to if they are struggling financially due to the Covid-19 outbreak. Each household can apply for up to £25 (total) to fund items such as paying utility bills, food, essential household purchases or vital school supplies for children for households in financial need due to the current crisis.
The application process is quick and easy, and is completed online via the following link: https://opencollective.com/beestonmutualaid
Please note that our funds are limited and cover a large area, so we do ask that only those in financial need apply, although there are no requirements to provide evidence of this.
If you have any further queries about the fund please email beestonmutualaid@gmail.com.”
