Could you, or someone you know, be missing out on Pension Credit?

The government estimates that up to one million pensioner households may be entitled to Pension Credit, but not all claim it.

Pension Credit tops up pension income and can help with day to day living costs.

The average Pension Credit payment is over £65 per week – that’s well over an extra £3,000 per year.

Receiving Pension Credit can also help provide access to support around rent, Council Tax, Cold Weather Payments and a free TV licence for people aged 75 and over.

Visit www.gov.uk/pension-credit or call 0800 99 1234 for more information.
