The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has issued a new update on the Warm Home Discount Scheme.
After the DWP made a change to the eligibility criteria, there is set to be an increase in the payments, reports Kent Live. The new £150, up from £140, will be paid directly from the Government via the DWP to energy suppliers.
Household bills will see the money deducted from their electricity bills. The additional support will be a huge relief from households who are struggling amid the cost of living crisis.
