Worried pensioners anxious about their financial future may be able to claim £3,000 a year under a DWP benefit. Pensioners are now being urged to take matters into their own hands and seek more support.
The advice follows Rishi Sunak’s Spring Statement on Wednesday (March 23) which was widely panned by critics including Money Saving Expert Lewis. One avenue of support is through pension credit also known as a "gateway" benefit.
This provides additional financial assistance with bills to those on a low income. Claimants are entitled to a range of support such as free TV licences if they are over 75, Cold Weather Payments and help with NHS costs.
