Thousands of families in Lincolnshire are rejoicing as the contentious two-child benefit limit has been removed, bringing financial ease to an estimated 16,000 children in the area. Local support groups have tirelessly campaigned against the scheme, asserting that it negatively affected low-income families across the county. It is anticipated that this adjustment will substantially enhance the welfare and opportunities for the affected children in areas such as Lincoln, Gainsborough, and Skegness. Community leaders have applauded the move, underlining the beneficial impact it will bestow on local societies already grappling with escalating living costs.
