Money Saving Expert Martin Lewis has urged 800,000 people in the UK to check if they're owed a free £2,000 payment. The finance expert has warned that almost a million households in the UK are owed the money, but haven't claimed it.
On his ITV show The Martin Lewis Money show, Martin explained the urgency of checking if you're liable for the cash injection. With the cost of living crisis crippling many households, it could prove a much-needed lifeline.
"There are 800,000 people in the UK eligible for tax-free childcare, which is effectively where you get 20% off the price of childcare through Gov.uk, the savings scheme there," Martin Lewis explained.
