Aberlour’s Urgent Assistance Fund can provide immediate relief to families with children (aged 21 and under, or 25 and under if the child is care experienced) who are suffering extreme hardship. Families who are struggling to provide food, heating and clothing for their children.

To qualify for cash grants from the Trust:

• There must be a child in the family who is 21 or under (or 25 and under if the child is care experienced).
• That child must be facing hardship.
