The Scottish Government's Pregnancy and Baby Payment will be launched on 10 December.
It will be a cash payment, to help the parents or carers of a baby cover some of the costs. It will be £600 for your first child, and £300 for other children. To see if you are eligible, check out the link below with details of how to apply. Along with the Scottish Government's popular Baby Boxes, this is a welcome boost to families struggling with the costs of having a baby. The progressive work of the Scottish Government is also in stark contrast to the actions of the UK Government, who are penalising families and causing untold suffering through policies like Universal Credit, the two child cap and the rape clause. We should be doing all we can to support families, and I'm delighted to see our Scottish Government leading the way with this work
