Unlike previous nationwide cost of living payments, the HSF operates at council level, meaning eligibility criteria, payment amounts and distribution methods can vary depending on where people live. However, many councils are issuing supermarket vouchers worth around £125 per household, either as a single payment or split into smaller amounts. In some cases, families with children, pensioners, disabled residents and people receiving certain benefits are being prioritised.
