Cold Weather Payments

Cold Weather Payments provide help towards eligible customers' heating costs during each seven-day period of very cold weather between 1 November and 31 March. There is no need to claim, eligible customers are paid automatically. This payment is over and above Winter Fuel Payments made to those over 60.

The gov.uk website Cold weather payments (This link will open in a new window) provides information on eligibility. There is a postcode search facility where customers can find out if Cold Weather Payments have been triggered in their area.
