Also leading charities in the sphere are strongly advising against your campaign (or similar) for the reasons we have all explained.

It also suggests you only work roughly one day a week and/or eight hours a week. Are you perhaps able to increase your working hours? That can do wonders for your income. Multiply £9.50 * 8 * 5 *52 = £19,760 gross.

@meldrewreborn

I am on the maximum benefits i am entitled to,

Yes the adult minimum wage is £9,50 per hour.

I am registered disabled and cannot work due to my injuries to both knees, Hips, Wrist, Lower back.

My wife is unable to work due to caring for me.

So yes my yearly income is one quarter lower than the yearly minimum wage for an adult.

I am one of the lower % that this government and others seem to over look in this cost of living crises.

Then perhaps Entitled To might be of assistance? https://www.entitledto.co.uk/ .

Feed the calculator details about your current circumstances and it'll try to suggest if there's any other support available.

I cannot work full stop.

Based on your circumstances, I'd also strongly recommend you set up a Priority Services Register status. https://www.eonnext.com/policies/extra-help

It also sounds like you may qualify for the Warm Home Discount, which can knock a further £150 off of your energy bills this winter. I'm still checking with Blastoise186 about anything else that may help.

I get warm front. but with all the price hicks the worm front does net even touch the side of a monthly bill come next year. The so called £400 this coming autumn from the government is going to be split over 6 months so yet again not going to touch the sides of a monthly bill.

By my own calculations, across the entire Energy Bills Support Scheme packages, you could be entitled to up to £1,500 this year - that more than crushes my entire energy bill for the rest of the year for starters. It's bound to make a dent in yours as well.

Can't say the government didn't at least care now, eh?

Yes, i know this for this year. But what happens when they hit £4,200 next year? There is no help except the yearly £150 warm front.
This is why i am worried.
