The British Gas Energy Trust Individual and Families Fund

The British Gas Energy Trust has reopened its Individual and Families Fund, offering grants of up to £1,700 to help households in England, Scotland, and Wales clear energy debt.

Open to both British Gas customers and those with other suppliers lacking hardship schemes or whose applications were declined, the fund requires debt between £50–£1,700 (prepayment) or £250–£1,700 (credit accounts).

Applicants must have an annual income under £18,723 or meet vulnerability criteria, such as disability, Carer’s Allowance, or three or more children, and must have received money or energy advice within the past six months.

No grant is available to those helped by the Trust in the past two years.

The scheme aims to clear arrears in full, with applications made via the British Gas Energy Trust website.

Applications are accepted at any time.
