Emergency Relief Assistance
Are you in need of financial assistance? Get in touch with the team at City Mission today so that we can see how we can help.
How To Get Assistance
Through assessment, caseworkers help with basic food packages, advocacy with electricity and telephone bills, emergency fuel or transport needs. City Mission can also help with referrals to other services as required. In some circumstances, we may be able to help you access medical advice, purchase medications or provide vouchers to purchase furniture, household goods and clothing.
We work in conjunction with other Emergency Relief agencies and have guidelines in place to ensure we help as many people as we can.
To access this service, you need to make an appointment for an interview with the Family Services team by telephoning, in person or online.
