Are you aware of this scheme?
It is a scheme to help people with their gas and electric bills and is available to people on a relatively low income.
The basic scheme rules are that if you or your partner receive Pension Credit (the Guarantee Credit part) then you will qualify. However each energy provider extends this to cover people on other benefits (including some disability benefits) or maybe below a certain income level - they are all different.
If you qualify, your energy supplier will credit £140/year to your energy bill.
Do a search for 'warm home discount scheme' on your supplier's web site.
Applying is simple - you just ring the phone number provided and give details of the relevant benefit that you or your partner receive.
