Are you aged 66+ or know someone who is? You could be entitled to claim Pension Credit.

Pension Credit can offer you extra money to help with your living costs if you’re over State Pension age and on a low income. Pension Credit can also help with housing costs such as rent.

You may also be able to get access to other benefits and support such as:

  • Housing Benefit if you rent the property you live in
  • Winter Fuel Payment
  • Council Tax discount
  • Free TV licence if you’re aged 75 or over
  • Help with NHS dental treatment
  • Glasses and transport costs for hospital appointments, if you get a certain type of Pension Credit
  • Help with your heating costs through the Warm Home Discount Scheme
  • A discount on the Royal Mail redirection service if you’re moving house
