Map shows when 100,000 households in Leeds will get £301 cost of living payment

Nearly 100,000 struggling families in Leeds are due a direct payment of £301 to help ease the cost of living crisis - and our map shows how many will benefit where you live.

Households on means-tested benefits will automatically receive £301 between April 25 and May 17, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) says. That amounts to more than £2.4 billion in funding provided to families across the UK.

In Leeds, more than £30m is being shared out among 99,800 families. That is the highest number of people eligible for the payout in all Yorkshire.
