Millions of households across the UK are continuing to keep an eye on their finances in the face of a worsening cost of living crisis.
Because of this, the government has provided a variety of help to Brits, including cost of living payments, energy rebates, cold weather payments, warm home discounts and a households support fund. However, with the new year just around the corner, many may already be looking for more financial support in order to help make ends meet.
The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) issued an update for millions people waiting to receive £900 in cost of living payments next year, with eight million people on means-tested benefits expected to get it. Meanwhile, an estimated 19.2 million families and 39.8 million families in receipt of DWP and HMRC benefits will see an increase to their payments, Lancs Live reports.
