Team Lopez – Julia Lopez MP has welcomed that 7.2 million cost of living payments of £326 have been made to low-income families, as the government continues to help households with the cost of living.

The government promised to help protect those on the lowest incomes from the global inflationary pressures caused by a range of international factors, and the government is delivering on this promise.

That is why over 7 million households have now received an automatic £326 payment to help with the cost of living, with the second half of the payment coming in autumn. Over 8 million of the most vulnerable households will receive £1,200 of direct support to help with bills over the winter.

This payment will give vital support to families across the country as they manage the cost of living. More information can be viewed here - 7.2 million Cost of Living payments made to low-income families - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
