Boiler and heating grants for the over-60s – The new budget 2008

James — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 00:57:03 +0000

Pensioners who had been hoping for big increase in winter fuel payments were disappointed by yesterday’s pre-budget report, although there was other significant help for the over-60s.

Alistair Darling’s most eye-catching announcement was the news that all those in receipt of the state pension would get a Christmas bonus of £60 – the first increase for years. The one-off payment will also go to those on disability allowance, and others on similar benefits.

For those struggling with gas and electricity bills that have doubled in recent years, the chancellor resisted the temptation to increase winter fuel payments from their current level of £250 per pensioner household – £400 if one or more resident is aged over 80.

Instead he said he was giving an extra £100m to the Warm Front programme, which targets poorer households with grants to deliver energy efficiency measures, including new boilers and cavity wall and loft insulation. Around £50m of the agency’s existing allocation will also to be spent a year sooner than planned. Read more…
