If you have a disability that requires the house to be kept warm, e.g. asthma, you may be able to use the disability allowance (if it’s not being used on other things) to help with the cost. Phone the number above to enquire.
If you are facing a final notice Work & Income may help with a payment. If there is an ongoing problem meeting your needs on a fixed income, ring 0800 552 002 for a one on one consultation. They will work through your commitments & see if you qualify for temporary additional support.
