On Your Behalf: Emergency Cost of Living Payments

Emergency Cost of Living Payments

BBC Radio Ulster - On Your Behalf, Emergency Cost of Living Payments

Emergency cost of living payments begin this week.

For anyone eligible, Emergency Cost of Living Payments should begin to arrive this week. Matt Cole of Advice NI talks us through who’s entitled to get one, what they’ll get and when it’ll arrive. If you aren’t in line to receive one, Matt also has advice on what other support is available. 

We speak to a woman from Ukraine who has recently settled in Northern Ireland. What support is available for people arriving here to set up bank accounts and access health and education services? Diversity NI, who offer translation services, explain their role in helping new arrivals, and the Law Centre detail their work helping Ukrainians with visas and immigration issues.
