Dear ,
We're emailing to inform you of a government grant that has become available for those who have fallen behind on rent due to the adverse effects of COVID-19.
To apply for a Tenancy Hardship Grant, you must have had financial hardship due to the Covid-19 pandemic that meant that you have not been able to pay your rent.
You will:
- have built up 8 weeks or more of rent arrears between 1 March 2020 and 30 June 2021
- have struggled to pay your rent or rent arrears due to Covid-19
- live in and hold a tenancy for a private sector property in Wales
- not have been getting housing benefit or housing cost payments through Universal Credit when you built up your rent arrears
- not have been able to fully pay your rent during the period when you went into arrears because of Covid-19.
You will not be able to get a Tenancy Hardship Grant if you have not experienced financial hardship during Covid-19 and deliberately not paid your rent to your landlord or agent.
If you meet this criteria, you can find out more and express your interest directly with Caerphilly County Borough Council by clicking the button below:
