More post codes are now due a Cold Weather Payment.
The DWP's site confirms that additional Cold Weather Payments have been triggered for eligible people who claim low-income benefits.
The £25 payment is made for every seven days that the average temperature is recorded at 0c or below. To get the payment, you must be claiming low-income benefits and have an additional need, like an inability to work for health reasons, a disability or you look after a child who is aged under five or disabled.
