  Help for households

  In September 2022 the Prime Minister announced an Energy Price Guarantee which would see households' annual energy bills regulated to £2,500 per year on average, for the next two years. Please visit the government's Energy bills support factsheet for more on this support.

  Trafford Assist is the Council’s local welfare assistance scheme to help residents in short-term acute financial difficulties. You can get emergency help with food, energy and water bills, essential travel expenses, white goods and furniture.

  Households on certain low-income benefits, like Universal Credit, Income Support. Tax Credits and Pension Credit, will receive a £650 cost of living payment. This will be paid automatically in two instalments.

  Disabled people receiving benefits related to their disability may receive a £150 one-off Disability Cost of Living Payment, paid automatically.

  A Pensioner Cost of Living Payment will be paid automatically from November 2022 to households who qualify for the Winter Fuel Payment.

  All domestic households will receive a £400 energy rebate through the Energy Bills Support Scheme - your energy supplier will apply this discount to your energy bills for you from October 2022.

  Trafford households in Council Tax bands A-D also received a £150 Council Tax energy rebate in April 2022.
