As the cold weather continues, those on low incomes may not realise that they could be missing out on hundreds of pounds by not claiming what they could be entitled to. The Know Your Rights campaign aims to encourage people of pensionable age to check whether they are eligible to claim pension credit.
Pension credit has helped many thousands and enables people to claim additional help with fuel bills, council tax and health care—even free dental care. Contact your local Age UK centre on freephone 0800 169 6565.
