Pension Credit tops up weekly income for people who have reached State Pension age and have a low income. It can help you get extra benefits like:

  •  Help with heating costs through the Warm Home Discount Scheme and Cold Weather Payment
  •  Housing Benefit if you rent the property you live in
  •  A Council Tax discount
  •  A free TV Licence if you’re aged 75 or over
  •  Help with NHS dental treatment, glasses and transport costs for hospital appointments, if you get a certain type of Pension Credit

To check eligibility or to make a claim, visit www.gov.uk/pension.credit or call the Pension Credit helpline on 0800 99 1234.
