While the financial boost of receiving #PensionCredit alone is great, the additional perks available are where the real value lies.

Taking these into account, the total value unlocked by Pension Credit could be around £10,000 a year per person.

It's #PensionAwarenessDay! There are nearly 900,000 pensioners who are entitled to #PensionCredit but aren’t claiming it.

Are you one of them? 🤔

Even if you're only entitled to a small amount, it's still worth claiming as it can help unlock lots of other benefits ⤵️
