Benefits Advice

Are you claiming all the benefits you and the person you care for, are entitled to?  Speak to one of our experienced Carer Support Workers to find out if you are getting all the benefits and support that you are entitled to.

Each benefit has  its own conditions, regulations and potential pitfalls. Some are means tested so entitlement depends on your savings/capital.  Some are available to all and others are not. Some may depend on the previous years National Insurance Contributions and earnings. Others depend on whether you are ill or have a  disability.

Because benefit conditions are continually changing and your personal circumstances may be as well,  we recommend that you seek regular assessments of your benefit entitlements.

Our Carer Support Workers will identify the appropriate agency for your personal situation and give you the contact information. If necessary, a Carer Support Worker can help you fill in the relevant forms.

Please call us on:  0845 600 9980 if you would like any advice on benefits and support available.
