This is an annual tax-free payment to help with heating costs. Make sure you are registered to get it – once you are, you will receive it every year without having to do anything.

Warm Home Discount

This is a discount on your electricity bill. You may able to get this if you are in receipt of Pension Credit or on a low income.
