One Swale Roadshows

The council’s One Swale Roadshows take place across the borough monthly and bring charities and other organisations under one roof, where they are ready and waiting to offer help and support to the people of Swale.

Following the success of these events over the past three years the council will be organising a new roadshow tailored to their location each month for the remainder of 2026, thanks to funding from UK Government’s new Crisis and Resilience Fund (CRF).

The CRF, which replaces the Household Support Fund, provides an essential safety net for people who need immediate financial help, while providing holistic support for residents to build long-term financial resilience.

The roadshows will be taking place across the borough between 9:30 to 11:30 on:

  • 27 August (Seashells Sheerness Children & Families Centre, Rose St, Sheerness ME12 1AW)
  • 26 November (Sheppey Gateway, 38, 42 High St, Sheerness, ME12 1NL)

The council will be tailoring each one to the issues residents face in each area.

Support will be available on a wide range of issues from financial hardship - providing things like vouchers, warm packs and bill discounts - employment and training opportunities to health and wellbeing.

This includes practical support such as food and fuel vouchers, water bill reductions and health check-ups, and offered advice on issues such as home safety, energy use, health and debt.

These events have been made possible thanks to the hard work of the Swale CVS who helped the council organise the roadshows, and funding from the UK Government.
