More than six million people with disabilities have started to receive a £150 cost-of-living payment.
The one-off payments, issued by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) throughout a two-week window, aims to support people with the extra costs they face.
The payments are part of a wider package of cost-of-living support worth up to £1,350 to the most vulnerable households. The payment itself falls in conjunction with a separate £301 cost of living payment to eight million UK households earlier in the year, although the Financial Conduct Authority recently detailed in a study that some 10 million Britons could be struggling to meet financial obligations at present.
