Written question WQ93804

The UK Government is leading the campaign to increase the take-up of Pension Credit across the UK which will include a Pension Credit week of action as well as a communications campaign. Welsh Government will support the week of action and subsequent campaign on our social media channels and work with our partners as part of a coordinated Pension Credit push.

Welsh Government has already reshared with stakeholders across Wales the Pension Credit social media messages used in the Welsh Government’s Claim What’s Yours campaign last winter. The message will encourage people to contact Advicelink Cymru for help to claim Pension Credit. This will also be publicised through a poster and a digital screen graphic to display in public areas which many older people access on a regular basis such as GP surgeries.
