The article discusses the government's initiative to provide cost-of-living payments to support pensioners and low-income families in Haringey. With £4.2 million allocated to help those in need, pensioners receiving Council Tax support or Housing Benefit can get £150, while households with disabled members can receive £195. The decision to extend the Household Support Scheme for another year is praised by local officials. Automatic payments of £95 will aid eligible households, along with vouchers for food and other necessities during school holidays.
The decision to extend Household Support for another year is welcome news for those facing cost-of-living pressures and anyone in financial hardship.
Pensioners are to receive 150 if they get Council Tax support or Housing Benefit but do not have Pension Credit, while payments of 195 are going to households with a disabled family member.
