Winter can bring extra challenges. Dark evenings and icy pavements can make it harder to get out, while cold weather can make us vulnerable to illness. Higher fuel bills can be worrying too.

Our guide Winter wise has practical tips on staying warm and healthy in the winter months, including information on Winter Fuel Payments, so you don't need to dread the cold weather.
