More than 10,000 low income families across Wakefield are set to receive £75 shopping vouchers over the school summer holidays.
Around 10,000 vulnerable pensioners across the district will also receive vouchers in June as part of a government support package. Senior councillors are expected to accept £3.1m from the government’s household support fund. It is the fifth round of funding intended to help those most in need pay for essential items such as food, energy and water bills.
”The funding is available for six months between April and September. A report to the council’s cabinet members says supermarket vouchers will be given to all pensioners and families with children who receive council tax support. Around 2,600 other residents on low income are also expected to receive the vouchers along with 7,700 people on disability benefit. A total of £470,000 of the funding will go to the council’s application-based scheme open to residents in need of help.
