Ask your MP to attend Westminster debate on changes to Winter Fuel Payments!

We need your help to protect Winter Fuel Payments for older people. The Chancellor plans to remove these payments for those not on Pension Credit, starting 16 September. This will put hundreds of thousands of older people at risk of severe financial difficulties.

Please write to your MP and urge them to attend the Westminster Hall debate on Tuesday, 10 September 2024. We need them to highlight the low take-up of Pension Credit and the impact this change will have on older people, especially those just above the threshold.

Your voice can make a difference. Let's ensure our MPs understand the importance of Winter Fuel Payments to maintain the wellbeing of older people living on a low income.
