Grant items

Please be aware that there may be a delay in receiving your grant item due to the impact of Coronavirus on our team and suppliers. Please visit our Coronavirus page for more information.

Thinking about applying to Family Fund, and wondering what items you can apply for? Our aim is to support families with grants that will make a real difference, and we can provide grants for a wide range of items.

Our popular grants include washing machines, sensory toys, family breaks, bedding, tablets, furniture, outdoor play equipment, clothing, and computers. We offer grants for many more things too, and are happy for you to contact us with requests for things that you can prove will help meet your child’s additional needs.

Once we have made a decision on your application, you will receive a letter to explain whether or not we can provide a grant on this occasion, and how it will be provided. Please check your award letter for details on how to use your grant. If you are having difficulty please contact us. 

Changing your requests

We can consider changing your request.

If you have not heard about your application yet, but wish to change your grant request, please visit contact us and answer the questions to log your request.

If you have received your award letter, please be advised that we can only consider changing your request within three months of the original award date. To do this, please email us with details on why you would like to change your grant, what you would like to change it to and how it will meet your child’s extra care needs. We will then consider your request.
