The payments will be given to low-income families in the form of supermarket vouchers
Many UK families are to get much-needed help towards the weekly food shop and other essential living costs over the school holidays. Those with school-aged children are in line for two payments – one for £15 and one for £60 per child.
They will get £15 supermarket vouchers ahead of the May half term and £60 supermarket vouchers ahead of the school summer holidays. And, those whose children meet the criteria for FSM but are too young for school, will also be given vouchers. ‘If you need help with food, gas, electric or household goods, you can apply for Local Welfare Provision. You do not need to receive benefits to apply for this help.’Wakefield Council is also giving out £75 supermarket vouchers to any families in receipt of Council Tax Support before the end of the school year.
