Thousands of disabled children and young people across Scotland will receive a one-off payment for £251.50 later this year to help with higher heating bills during the 2024/25 winter season.

The Scottish Government has now confirmed all the new payment rates for devolved benefits and payments, including the Child Winter Heating Payment.

The devolved payment will be worth £151.50 next winter, an increase of £15.80 on the £235.70 payments received by an estimated 29,000 families since November 2023 to help them with higher costs during the colder months.

Payments are expected to be made around the same time this year. The £251.50 lump sum is automatically paid to families of children and young people up to the age of 19 who already get certain levels of qualifying disability benefits.

Kate Middleton’s senior staffers haven’t seen or spoken to her, ‘didn’t know’ about surgery: It’s causing ‘concern’
her post-recovery process.The Princess of Wales, 42, has been recovering from her abdominal surgery behind closed doors since January — but according to those working for her, she is nowhere to be seen.“A few of Kate’s senior staffers haven’t been able to see or speak to her, and they didn’t even know about the surgery until it was announced, so it’s caught them off guard,” a source told Us Weekly.The widespread speculation caused by the release of Middleton’s doctored family photo last week prompted sleuths to make claims not only about Middleton’s health, but also her whereabouts.And according to Kensington Palace insiders, the mom of three has only just started opening up to her inner circle about the nature of her surgery.What’s more, insiders claim the princess’s staffers weren’t aware of her operation until after she’d had it.“Only a few people know what’s really going on, and they’re tight-lipped,” a source told the outlet. “It’s confusing and causing some concern.”The source added that Middleton has only had a few visitors, including cancer-stricken King Charles III and his wife, Queen Camilla, but is otherwise covered by a “shroud of secrecy.”A second source says the palace is being “very hush-hush” about Middleton’s post-op recovery.“Kate’s said she feels she’s entitled to heal and recuperate without all of this frenzied speculation,” an insider said, adding that it was Middleton’s decision to keep details of her surgery private.
