According to The Sun: In the UK, cold weather payments have been activated in 728 postal codes. This decision was made in light of the freezing temperatures affecting the country. The payment amount is £25 and is intended for low-income families to help cover energy bills during prolonged cold spells. The Department of Social Policy has reported that today over a million households across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland will receive this payment.
