It comes after news that there will be a reduction in Government funding starting next year.
Bucks Council have announced that they will use existing Government-funded Homes for Ukraine grant funding already allocated to top up sponsor payments.
From January 2027, Government 'thank you' payments paid to hosts through the Homes for Ukraine scheme, will reduce from £350 per month to £100 per month.
The council say their decision is designed to help maintain successful hosting arrangements and ensure those who have sought sanctuary in the county continue to receive support. They add that supporting vulnerable residents and helping people access the right support at the right time is a "key priority".
Cabinet Member for Communities, Steve Bowles, said:
"Buckinghamshire residents have shown extraordinary kindness and generosity in supporting people displaced by the war in Ukraine."
"This funding recognises the contribution our local sponsors continue to make and will help provide stability for both sponsors and Ukrainian guests at a time of change. By using funding already provided through the Homes for Ukraine scheme, we're able to continue supporting sponsors and guests across Buckinghamshire.
"Many residents who arrived in Buckinghamshire through the Homes for Ukraine scheme have built new lives here, becoming part of our communities, workplaces and neighbourhoods. We want them to know that support remains available and that we remain committed to helping those who have been forced to flee their homes.
"Supporting the most vulnerable is a key priority for Buckinghamshire Council. This decision reflects our commitment to ensuring people can access the support they need and continue to live safe, stable and independent lives within our communities."
The council say the announcement forms part of their ongoing support for residents who arrived through the Homes for Ukraine scheme and complements their wider relationship with the Kyiv region.
