The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) will start making the first payments of the £650 cost of living support from next week with a lump sum of £326 due to land in 8 million bank accounts from July 14.
However, if you are not eligible for the means-tested payment, or any of the others due to be paid later this year, you may still be able to access financial support from your local council.
