Local Welfare Provision

Milton Keynes Council administers Local Welfare Provision (LWP) which aims to:

  • Prevent serious risk to health, wellbeing or safety
  • Provide essential support in the event of an emergency
  • Help people to be part of the community
     

An award will normally be a one off payment, normally in goods or services, as a short term fix to prevent a long term problem.
