Pensioners have been warned they have 10 days remaining to check if they qualify for cost of living support.
The Government has issued a reminder that people have until May 19 to check if they are eligible for Pension Credit. Pension Credit is designed to help people over State Pension age and on a low income with daily living costs, though you do not need to be in receipt of State Pension to receive it.
It tops up a person's income to a minimum of £201.05 per week for single pensioners and to £306.85 for couples or more if a person has a disability or caring responsibilities. Those who qualify will also be eligible for a £301 cost of living payment available to support people amid skyrocketing inflation and energy prices.
