Who Can Apply?

Applying to the British Gas Energy Trust for a grant

Step 1: Find the right support for you

Millions of households are not claiming the benefits they are entitled to.
The Better Off Calculator is a tool to help you better understand your income and outgoings, and to provide access to any support schemes you may be entitled too.

Step 2. Get specialist money and energy advice in your local community

We fund local charities and advice centres across England, Scotland and Wales that specialise in money and energy debt. These specialist services include help with budget planning, resolving energy debt issues, and support with maximising income. This is also a great next step as your local advice centre can help you understand whether to apply for grants, and how to do it. Speaking to a friendly voice can help relieve the pressure and give you reassurance that you can take back control of your finances.
