Warm Home Discount
Applicable each winter, from October, you could get £150 off your electricity bill under the Warm Home Discount Scheme. The money is not paid to you – it’s a one-off discount on your electricity bill.
Winter Fuel Payments – If you were born before 25 September 1957 you could get between £250 and £600 to help you pay your heating bills. You usually do not need to claim Winter Fuel Payment, you will get it automatically if you’re eligible
