With temperatures plummeting in North Lanarkshire this week, Lanarkshire SNP MSP Clare Adamson has highlighted that pensioners have started to receive financial support to heat their homes this winter. ‌

The first payments of the SNP Scottish Government’s Pension Age Winter Heating Payment have been processed and started landing in pensioners accounts. ‌

The support this winter will be more necessary than ever, with energy bills spiralling by an average of £200 since Labour came to power – after they promised to cut bills by £300. ‌
