A one-off discount could be applied to thousands of energy bills
Thousands of households across the UK will start getting an extra £150 in winter support from October.
There are a couple of different ways to qualify for the scheme which could be a major help as other forms of government support towards energy bills will not be available this winter. In order to receive the discount, you must either get the Guaranteed Credit element of Pension Credit or be on a low income with high energy costs, MEN reports.
