November 2022 – March 2023: Cold Weather Payments

If you’re in receipt of certain benefits, and the average temperature in your areas drops to zero degrees celsius, you could receive £25 a week in cold weather payments. The temperature would need to remain at zero degrees celsius for 7 consecutive days, and £25 will be paid for each 7 day period. For example, if the weather remained the same for a 14 day period, you would receive £50.

For Parents: Tax-free childcare

Since 2010, the government has doubled the amount of free childcare for eligible working parents of 3–4-year-olds. It has increased from 15 to 30 hours per week, which works out to be around £5,000 per child, per year. They have also introduced tax-free childcare, giving working parents up to £500 every 3 months for each child. This can amount to £2,000 of childcare support a year (£4,000 for disabled children).

For Savers: Help to Save

The Help to Save scheme is a brand new savings account to help you look after the pennies and collect the pounds. If you receive working tax credit, or universal credit, you can get a bonus of 50p for every pound you save over four years. This bonus is paid in a lump sum, into the savings account, at the end of the second and fourth year. As a government backed saving scheme, all savings are secure.
