Some Congleton Constituency residents may qualify for Pension Credit and not realise they are eligible.
If you’re eligible, you could get an average of £3,300 of extra support per year.
Pension Credit is separate from the State Pension, and tops up your income to £182.60 per week if you live alone or £278.70 per week if you have a partner.
All you need to apply is your national insurance number, bank details, and information about your savings.
If you do qualify you will receive an backdated £324 cost of living payment but in order to receive this you must apply by 18th December.
