Map shows where £150 DWP payments will start to be paid this week

More than 200,000 people claiming disability benefits in Merseyside will receive a £150 boost to help ease the cost of living crisis from this week - and our map shows how many will benefit where you live.

Anyone receiving one of nine disability benefits will receive the £150 payment from June 20, the DWP confirmed. This is a separate payment to the £301 cost of living sum which was paid to eight million households earlier this year.

The extra payment of £150 will go to more than 6m individuals who are in receipt of disability benefits, over a two-week period starting from yesterday (June 20).
