Independence, Benefits and Housing
This service aims to support you to fill in benefits and other forms such as Universal Credit (UC) Personal Independence Payments (PIP), Employment and Support Allowance (ESA), Attendance allowance and so on.
This service is free.
We are also able to offer support with appeals should your application for benefit be turned down.
We can also help with housing and debt issues.
These services get very busy so please contact us for an appointment in good time. Don’t leave it until the last minute as we may not be able to help you.
In addition to this, we also have access to a wealth of information around disability issues that may be of use to you. It is our aim to give you the information you require and if we are unable to answer your question, we will attempt to find the information from a third party or give you the contact details of an organization or individual who may be able to help.
