Struggling families and pensioners in Wakefield are to get supermarket vouchers to help with living costs.
The vouchers are part of a number of measures from the council to support the most vulnerable
The vouchers are one of a number of proposed measures from the council to help pay for items such as food, energy and water bills up until next March.The council said those who qualified for council tax reduction would be eligible for the vouchers. Rising prices - including spiralling energy bills - are making it harder for those on low incomes to make ends meet.
The council has drawn up a plan that would see families who receive a council tax reduction being given a £100 supermarket voucher in time for Christmas. Pensioners and those on disability benefits, who also qualify for the tax reduction, would receive the £100 voucher in January, when the council said "energy bills are at their highest".
