What’s Available To Help With Energy Costs?

Households in England, Wales and Scotland will receive a one-off £400 grant from October for their energy bills. This won’t need to be paid back. The previous £200 government loan has been scrapped.

The £400 payment should be debited to your energy account if you pay by credit or direct debit. If you have a prepayment meter you should have the money applied to your meter or you should receive a voucher. You should receive the payment over a six month period.

If you’re renting and the energy account is in your name, the rebate should be debited to your energy account or to your prepaid meter over a six month period. If your landlord deals with your energy bills, it’s worth speaking to them about what happens when they receive the rebate.

You could also receive benefits such as:

  • A £650 payment if you’re on means tested benefits
  • A one-off £300 pensioner cost of living payment
  • A £150 disability cost of living payment

Staffordshire Police Survey – Are You Getting What You Need ? Do You Feel Safe?

These are the questions that Chief Constable Chris Noble and Staffordshire Commissioner, Ben Adams, are asking you as residents of Staffordshire and Stoke-on-Trent.

The public satisfaction and perception survey will help to determine how confident local people are in Staffordshire Police and highlight how accessible and visible you think the force is.

The survey closes on 26 June and findings will inform future plan priorities, highlight any challenges around reporting concerns and support local decision making to help keep Staffordshire safe.
