Age Concern Petersfield would encourage you to apply for pension credit as this gives you access to the winter fuel payment and other benefits. Call the Govt number 0800 99 1234 and you will be guided through the process, or contact Citizens Advice in Petersfield to help you apply on 0808 278 7901.
