Cost-of-Living Support Scheme - update (30/04/22)
Cost of living payment

The Welsh Government’s Cost-of-Living Support Scheme is made up of 2 parts; a main scheme with a payment of £150 per eligible household (related to certain council tax payers) and a discretionary scheme.

If you are eligible under the main scheme and pay your council tax by direct debit, and we have collected at least one council tax payment from you, you should receive a cost of living payment by the 6th of May.

For all other council tax payers eligible under the main scheme, we will be making an online form available around mid-May. Each local authority in Wales decides its own discretionary scheme within Welsh Government guidelines and details for that scheme will be published during May.

Please check our website and social media channels for the latest information.
