  Being disabled doesn't automatically qualify you. If you live in Wales there's a £200 fuel support scheme you can apply for. You only have 3 days left to apply for this. Criteria here.  https://gov.wales/winter-fuel-support-scheme

  The Warm Home discount scheme has closed for 2021/22 but will reopen later in the year for next year.

  Hi @Middleton
  
  Hope you're well. Have you considered contacting Scope's Disability Energy Support service to talk through what support you could access, as well as any challenges you may be facing with your energy.
