The government’s new Test and Trace Support Payment Scheme will be launched in Bexley on Monday 12 October.
A news release to explain the help that is available and how to apply will be published on Monday.
The scheme has been set up to help support those on low incomes who are unable to work from home if they are told to self-isolate by NHS Test and Trace and will lose earned income as a result.
Those eligible for support under the scheme will receive a payment of £500.
