Answer:

The government has set up a Fund to support the remediation of buildings that have ACM and other types of cladding.  The second round of the Fund was launched in July 2022.

For more details please see:

If you need help with the terminology used by the Fund, please read the Building Safety Fund: Leaseholder and Resident Service glossary.

Making an application to the Building Safety Fund is a complex process.  Applications to the Building Safety Fund are made by the Freeholder/Managing Agent/Right to Manage Company rather than individual leaseholders. 

The Association of Residential Managing Agents (ARMA) have useful information that explains what managing agents / freeholders have to do to complete a Building Safety Fund application.

The government has published guidance for leaseholders or residents of a building where an application is underway from the Building Safety Fund.
