The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has revealed those on disability benefits will get an additional lump sum. The £150 cash, which was sent on June 20, is aimed at helping with rising costs.
The payment is in conjunction with the separate £301 cost of living payment that was paid earlier this year, as reported by Birmingham Live. But they aren't the only schemes that aim to help ease the cost of living crisis.
Thankfully, there are a number of packages that are on the way for households that are struggling. Despite the expiration of Rishi Sunak’s Energy Bill Support Scheme at the end of March, millions of households on low incomes will receive further cost of living support totalling £1,350.
