To apply for hardship please send us an email titled Hardship Application’ with the following information.

We may request a copy of your drivers licence, recent bank statements, medical certificate, employment termination notice or other documentation to support your application. Depending upon your circumstances we may require you to attend a Budget Advisory Service at our cost to assess your future financial needs.
