I received this today:
DWP - Energy Benefit Notice: You have been successfully enrolled in the UK Government's Energy Benefit Scheme and are eligible to apply for a one-off £200-£300 Home Energy Grant. The grant will be used to pay directly for your recent household energy bills, including electricity and gas bills, as well as bills for high-frequency appliances such as water heaters, radiators and air conditioners.
