Petitions had to stop because of the recent general election. Once a new Petitions Committee is set up by the House of Commons, petitions will start again.

Closed petition Extend the Warm Home Discount to everyone with a disability

Hundreds of thousands of disabled people are not eligible to claim the "Warm Home Discount". Although only £140, in these times of 'rocketing' fuel prices it could make the choice between heating and eating harder! I want anyone with a disability to be able to claim this discount.

More details

Many of the most vulnerable in society are not eligible to claim the Warm Home Discount, because they are not receiving means-tested benefits. These people often need higher temperatures than those without disabilities. I believe the current policy unfairly discriminates against many disabled people.

About petition data

The data shows the number of people who have signed the petition by country as well as in the constituency of each Member of Parliament. This data is available for all petitions on the site. It is not a list of people who have signed the petition. The only name that is shared on the site is that of the petition creator.

We’re waiting for a new Petitions Committee
