Discount for low-income pensioners

If you're a pensioner, you could be entitled to a discount on your water and/or sewerage bill.

Who can apply?

You can apply if we provide you with water and/or sewerage services and all the adults in your household receive Pension Credit or the State Pension is your (and their) only income.

Are you entitled to Pension Credit?

If you have reached the State Pension age and are on a low income, you may be able to apply for Pension Credit. You may also be eligible to have your income topped up by the government.

How does it work?

We will reduce your bill by around £55 every year.

You do not need to reapply each year or if you move home.

Before you apply

To apply for this discount, you will need a copy of your evidence to show entitlement to Pension Credit or a copy of your bank statement showing the State Pension as your only income. 

Any evidence sent needs to show your name and address and be dated within the last 12 months.
