THOUSANDS of households have just a few weeks to apply to get £100 to help with the cost of living.
The help comes from the Household Support Fund, which is worth £842million in total.
The money comes from the Government which has shared it out among councils in England.
It is then up to the councils how they distribute their portion of the money.
The type of support given varies as well – some local authorities are handing out food or utility bill vouchers while others are making bank transfers.
