Furniture Poverty: Cornwall
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, whether his Department has evaluated the effectiveness of the new Crisis and Resilience Fund at tackling furniture poverty in Cornwall.
- Answer
-
The Crisis and Resilience Fund launched in April 2026, and therefore no evaluation has taken place yet.
The Department is planning to evaluate the Crisis and Resilience Fund across England, including the full range of discretionary support provided through the Fund, such as assistance with essential furniture and white goods. This evaluation is expected to launch by September 2026.
