Hello,

Happy New Year to you! We hope you had a restful break over the Christmas holidays.

We are emailing to ask whether you could support us by sharing the attached flyer with your relevant contacts to further promote the Pensioner Just Missing Out Scheme - you could share the flyer with residents you are supporting, or a relative, neighbour, friend?

The Pensioner Just Missing Out scheme supports Kent pensioners in need of help with significantly rising living costs. The scheme is available for pension-aged residents on lower incomes who are not eligible for Pension Credit or the government’s Winter Fuel Payment.

The scheme is funded by the Department for Work and Pensions on behalf of the UK government.

Please note – you will need to provide an email address and have online access for energy support activation. Food vouchers will not require online activation and can be issued by email or post.

This scheme provides eligible residents with £200 towards energy, food, or both. The scheme will close on 28 February 2025, or when all funds are spent.

It would be greatly appreciated if you could print copies of the flyer and display on your noticeboards and share across your social media platforms.

If you have any queries, please email [email protected]

Kind regards,

Financial Hardship Programme | Strategy, Policy, Relationships & Corporate Assurance I Kent County Council | Invicta House, Maidstone, ME14 1XQ | www.kent.gov.uk
