Some councils in Britain are giving families £60 vouchers to spend on their shopping. The scheme has been designed to help the most cash-strapped families in the country.
With bills rising at an astronomical rate, people are struggling more and more to feed themselves and their kids. But thankfully councils have stepped in to offer some much-needed help to cash-strapped residents. One leading light is the local authority in Middlesbrough, which is giving those in need a £60 voucher to spend on food.
The coupons began going out earlier this month to parents of children receiving free school meals, with the one-off payment per child available to use at any supermarket. In total, the town is handing out a £1.6m slice of the government’s cost of living household support scheme.
