Actors including Brian Cox, Jane Asher and Sue Holderness star in a new campaign for British charity Independent Age, encouraging 'older people to check their Pension Credit.

.. to ensure they receive the Winter Fuel Payment this winter'. Cox commented 'In a compassionate and just society, no one should have to worry about not being able to turn the heating on. Currently, 150,000 pensioners in Scotland live in poverty. Yet we know that around 90,000 older people are missing out on Pension Credit they are entitled to in Scotland. It has never been more important to ensure that everyone eligible for Pension Credit receives it'.
