Background
We think no one should be cold during the winter months in the UK in 2024. Whilst the Winter Fuel Allowance does provide assistance to some of the poorest pensioners, we think the current cut off means that others will still struggle to pay their bills & heat their homes adequately. We think other people who are below state pension age, some with children, are in the same situation.
