Is There Government Help For Non Mains Gas Users ?

When the Government announced the Energy Bills Support Scheme, I thought something was included to help people who aren't on mains gas (eg. Calor). As I understand it while the £400 is paid via energy companies supplying electricity, it is intended to help with heating predominantly. Given there is just no way to fix Calor gas bottle prices (as there is - was - with mains gas), I figured the "help" was to try offset that.
Can't find anything online about it, am sure the Calor gas supplier wouldn't know. Is it "a thing" or did I imagine it ?

Won't you get the £400 against your electricity bill?
//If you have separate suppliers for gas and electricity, the discount will come via your electricity supplier//

You will have received the £400 via your electricity bill same as everyone else assuming you are connected. I don’t remember any additional grant toward Calor Gas.

If your electricity bill is much less that than the £66/67 pm being paid by the gov. presumably you can ask for any credit you build up to be repaid to you which you can then use for the calor.
Try your local council.
Households using off grid fuel like LPG or heating oil will receive £100 of extra government help towards rising bills this autumn. We aren’t sure how this voucher or payment will be sent out, but we’ll update this page when we know more information.
