On Wed's Money Box Live I'm looking at what benefits and perks you're entitled to but many people don't claim. Pension Credit, council tax support, social tariffs, Tax-Free Childcare... if you discovered you could get more help then pls email me felicity.hannah@bbc.co.uk
My mum didn't know she was entitled to Pension Credit until the recent reporting of the withdrawal of the winter fuel allowance. Turns out she was and one phone call (after much nagging from me) later she is getting an extra £50 per week.
Shares gratefully received - always hard to find people to talk about these specifics 🙂
I’d love to have some inspiring stories of people who got the help they were entitled to and want to tell others about how they can too
Very valuable topic to cover. It’s a scandal how many things are available but are not common knowledge.
