Millions of people on low incomes will start receiving 324-pounds into their bank accounts today to help them through the cost of living crisis.
The payments from the UK Government are the second part of 650-pounds being paid out to people receiving benefits.

"This money is targeted at those who need it most to help them through this winter.
“We recognise that people on low incomes are worried and we are doing all we can to support them with this payment and a wider package of help.”
