iprovision can help in a number of ways:
Grants to meet specific needs
We can provide one-off grants to help cover specific circumstances, for example, to pay for an essential item like a washing machine, an aid to daily living or to help with an unforeseen bill.
The Trustees can also award monthly or quarterly grants for a limited period to ease hardship.
Unfortunately, iprovision cannot provide grants to pay for CIPR annual subscriptions (which should be discussed with the CIPR Membership team) or business costs or debts.
Help with respite care or care break costs
We recognise that the cost of respite care or getting a care break can be prohibitive so iprovision can provide help towards such costs – for you as a member or for a close dependant such as your partner, child or parent living with you.
Support and assistance
The Trustees want to ensure that every applicant is getting all the support and help that might be available. The Administrator will talk with you about local and national services and benefits you may be entitled to.
Loans in exceptional circumstances
Instead of a grant the Trustees can award a short-term, interest free loan. This has been helpful in the past for members awaiting a lump sum payment or anticipating sufficient future income to repay the loan.
