Promoting Pension Credit Awareness

DWP Pension Credit Tool Kit

The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has released a Pension Credit Toolkit, a free resource hub for organisations to help raise awareness of Pension Credit among older people, their families, and carers. The toolkit includes downloadable social media assets, posters, and flyers to support local campaigns.

DWP estimate that up to 760,000 pensioner households may be entitled to Pension Credit, but do not claim it.
