Millions of households will receive up to £350 to help with the cost of living following a rise in the energy price cap.
All domestic electricity customers will get £200 off their energy bills from October, with 80% of households receiving a £150 Council Tax rebate from April.
Chancellor Rishi Sunak announces £9.1 billion Energy Bills Rebate to support families with rising global energy prices.
On top of this discount, discretionary funding of £144 million will also be provided to support vulnerable people and individuals on low incomes that do not pay Council Tax, or that pay Council Tax for properties in Bands E-H.

Whilst Mansfield District Council is aware of the announcement, we have yet to receive the official guidance or funding. We will update this webpage as soon as we have any updates.
