Cost of living payments worth £650 will start to arrive from this week, in what will be a welcome boost for struggling families.
The first half of the money - worth £326 - is expected to start being sent out to those who claim certain means-tested benefits from July 14.
This will arrive into the bank accounts of those who claim Universal Credit, income-related Employment and Support Allowance, income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance, Income Support, and Pension Credit.
