There are several payments available
The government and local councils are providing free payments to claimants and those on benefits. These include bonus payments and free winter cash for those in need, such as £150 Warm Home Discounts and £25 Cold Weather Payments.
It's designed to help cover heating costs in winter, with eligible households receiving up to £300. Normally, eligible households receive this payment automatically, reports Birmingham Live. This discount doesn't affect your eligibility for a Winter Fuel Payment or Cold Weather Payment. There's no age requirement to qualify for the Warm Home Discount in the UK.
