    Hi Rio-rose.
    Yes there is help available under supplementary welfare allowance, from your local community welfare officer, if you are eligible.
    If you visit your CWO they will give you a form to fill in and tell you what you can claim for.
    The amount varies depending on what the cwo decides you need. They usually give you money TOWARDS the cost of white goods, beds, sofa,carpets for certain rooms, curtains and possibly various other items if needed like pots and pans etc.

    Good luck in your new house
