If you live in a residential park home and pay for your electricity through the site owner, you may be eligible for a one-off £150 payment to help with your energy costs.

The Park Homes Warm Home Discount Scheme 2025/26 opens for applications on 27 August 2025. Funding is limited and awarded on a first-come, first-served basis.

What is the Park Homes Warm Home Discount?

Many park homeowners don’t have a direct account with a UK energy supplier, which means they can miss out on mainstream discounts. This scheme, introduced by Charis in partnership with Ofgem, helps ensure park residents are not left behind.

Who is eligible?

  • You may qualify if:
  • You live permanently in a park home in England, Wales or Scotland
  • You pay the park site owner for your electricity
  • You pay council tax (or receive a council tax bill)
  • You receive means-tested benefits or have a household income below £20,328
  • Qualifying benefits include:
  • Pension Credit
  • Universal Credit (with monthly earnings under £1,694)
  • Income Support
  • Housing Benefit
  • Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
  • Income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
  • Child Tax Credit or Working Tax Credit (income under £20,328)

Alternatively, if your total household income is under £20,328 before tax, you may also be eligible.
