Nearly 20,000 households could receive £250 payments to help with heating costs in a new support package from the Welsh government

Up to 20,000 households using heating oil could get a £250 payment from the Welsh government to help with the rising cost of living.

The government said £5m from a new £130m package will help "off grid" households who are dependent on either heating oil or LPG and are eligible for reduced council tax.

The package includes the £100 household energy payment, with this extended to those eligible for council tax relief "irrespective of band".

It also includes £7m support for bus travel and £8m for councils to help those "not captured by other schemes".
