School clothing grants

School clothing grants

Clothing allowances are available to help parents (who live within Hammersmith & Fulham) buy school uniforms for their children.

The clothing allowance is paid to children that are aged 4 and 7 before 1st September of the current year and is worth £31. The allowance rises to £79 for children aged 11 and 14 before 1st September.

  • you receive income based job seekers allowance or
  • you receive income related employment and support allowance or
  • you receive guaranteed pension credit or
  • you are supported under the national asylum seekers support system (NASS) or
