Could you apply for a children’s bedroom furniture grant?

You may be eligible for a grant if you work or have recently worked for a fashion or textile employer and are caring for a child under 18.

We help parents in many situations, including:

•    Financial hardship due to job loss, illness or bereavement
•    Families who are rehoused after homelessness or unsafe living conditions
•    Low-income households struggling with long-term financial hardship

Unlike a loan, FTCT grants never need to be repaid. They’re a gift to help your family through challenging times.

Our grants for children’s bedroom furniture can help with:

•    Beds and mattresses
•    Cots and bedding
•    Desks and wardrobes
•    Bedroom essentials for newly rehoused families

Helping families during rehousing

Many families come to us during times of upheaval, such as rehousing or moving into a new home. These transitions can be especially hard on children, who may find themselves without their own bed or a place to store their belongings.

That’s where our support comes in. Our grants for children’s bedroom furniture aim to help families with the essentials they need to feel settled and secure.
