The Opportunity Engine maps your 10 answers against dozens of real UK money routes across benefits (DWP/HMRC), pensioner schemes, HMRC tax reliefs, Council Tax discounts, energy/water/broadband social tariffs, family/children grants, housing & deposit schemes, debt + crisis support, hidden money (lost pensions, dormant accounts, Child Trust Funds), compensation (Section 75, APP scam refund, UK261, Delay Repay), charity grants, and self-employed/business reliefs. Each result is tagged with a confidence rating (high likelihood · may qualify · check eligibility) and shows what else it unlocks (e.g. Pension Credit unlocks Warm Home Discount + free TV Licence at 75 + free NHS dental).

Around £24.1 billion of UK support goes unclaimed each year. The biggest gaps are Pension Credit, Council Tax Reduction and disability benefits — often missed because people assume savings, a job or owning a home rules them out. It usually does not. Check what you can claim.
Grants are one-off payments you do not repay. They come from councils, charities, energy suppliers and trusts, and cover things like white goods, school uniform, funeral costs, boiler repairs and hardship. Many are open to people in work. Find grants.
There are 758,000 unclaimed Child Trust Funds worth over £1.5 billion, an estimated 3.3 million lost pension pots, and more than £88 million in unclaimed Premium Bond prizes. Every tracing service is free and official. See the eight places to look.

Some ask you to sign a deed of assignment that redirects future refunds to them as well. Every check on this page is free and you can do it yourself in minutes.
