EDF and IncomeMax find over £1m in unclaimed benefits for nearly 5,000 households during last year

With around £15 billion of benefits being unclaimed every year, IncomeMax and EDF are helping vulnerable families across the UK access essential financial support.

Since 2011, the social enterprise and energy giant have been working together to support low income and vulnerable people take control of their finances.

Over 11 years, the partnership has found more than £11 million in additional income for those in need. In the context of a cost of living crisis and a global pandemic, the two companies have supported almost 5,000 UK households over the past 12 months and found more than £1 million of additional income, with an average uplift of almost £4,000 - including backdated payments.
