UK Government Distributes £150 Payment to 6 Million People with Disabilities to Help with Cost of Living

The UK government will distribute a £150 payment to over 6 million people with disabilities to help with the cost of living.

The payment is automatic and eligible individuals do not need to take any action.

This follows a similar payment in September and is part of the government's efforts to support struggling households cope with rising energy costs and inflation, which hit 40-year highs last year.

However, some charity heads believe that the payment will not be enough to cover the costs faced by many households.

If you are struggling to pay your debts, it is important to seek support from a trained debt adviser.
