The warm home discount is the first option when it opens later in the year. Criteria this year will be different to previous years. See link. https://www.entitledto.co.uk/help/warm-homes-discount

The Government are announcing more help for everyone later today but this is likely for later in the year.

There's also the Council rebate of £150 if you're named on a council tax bill and your home is in band A to D. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/consumer/energy/energy-supply/get-help-paying-your-bills/grants-and-benefits-to-help-you-pay-your-energy-bills/

The winter fuel payment if you're above a certain age, you can see all these in the link above.

Welcome to the community  

Energy is a massive concern for so many of us at the oment, and it's important to know what support is out there. I hope the above has been helpful, I also wanted to draw your attention to Scope's energy support service which you can find details for here. They will be able to provide you with advice about your bills and talk through any issues you're having

I hope to see you getting involved more around the community. This is a very supportive and welcoming site to be a part of so I’m hopeful that you’ll find it to be a positive outlet. Feel free to have a look around and get involved wherever you’d like 😊 A few notable pages I’d recommend visiting would be:

• The virtual coffee lounge which is one of our categories, in which we play games and talk about general subjects such as hobbies and interests
• The recent discussions page, which shows an overview of everything happening across the community
• The categories page, which shows a full list of discussion groups on the community
