You may get a Cold Weather Payment if you’re getting certain benefits.
Payments are made when your local temperature is either recorded as, or forecast to be, an average of zero degrees Celsius or below over 7 consecutive days.
You’ll get a payment of £25 for each 7 day period of very cold weather between 1 November and 31 March.
Use the Cold Weather Payment tool to find out if your area is due to receive a payment.
