North Lanarkshire are launching this fund to help people who are particularly likely to be “feeling the pinch” this winter.
The fund is part of Scottish Government’s contribution to support people during the pandemic. It is a limited pot of money which means that the council may have to close the scheme early if demand exceeds the level of funding available.
