Millions of UK households are set to receive help to pay their energy bills despite soaring costs. The Winter Fuel Payments will help British people over the age of receiving the state pension to heat their homes this winter amid the cost of living crisis.

The payment has been created to help elderly people with their gas and energy bills.The Winter Fuel Payment is available for anyone born on or before September 26, 1956. Normally, eligible pensioners can get between £100 to £300 to put towards their heating costs, depending on age and means.
If you receive state pension or another social security benefit the payment will be made automatically. This does not include Adult Disability Payment from the Scottish Government, Housing Benefit, Council Tax Reduction, Child Benefit or Universal Credit.
