Citizens Advice Darlington - New campaign to encourage Pension Credit Take Up
Citizens Advice Darlington Redcar and Cleveland are therefore pursuing a take up campaign, aimed at helping pensioners to check if they are entitled to Pension Credit.
Claimants must have been entitled to pension credit by 23/09/24 but, as Pension Credit can be backdated 3 months we are advising clients to claim Pension Credit must be made by 20/12/2024.
They are running a phone line for initial advice regarding entitlement on (01325) 734999 (Monday – Friday 2pm – 4pm) or pensioners can call into their office 10am – 12 pm.
Age UK can also provide advice (details on the leaflets below).
Please find enclosed 2 leaflets, one aimed at pensioners to raise awareness of the benefits of applying for Pension Credit and the second to encourage families with pensioners within their families to check their entitlement and apply.
