Our Services

Help to claim benefits
We want to help frail and vulnerable people who find it difficult or impossible to use other benefit advice services. These are mostly older people living alone who, because of illness or disability, find it difficult to travel or to have long telephone conversations. Usually, our benefits advisor will meet people in their own home.

We give priority to people who are financially disadvantaged and those:

  • who are isolated
  • who find it difficult to leave their home
  • who find communication difficult.

If you know of someone who needs this service, please contact us.
