We’re pleased to report our Welfare Benefits Team is continuing to make a real difference for carers. In the last quarter, our two Welfare Benefits Advisors supported 209 carers via phone calls, workshops and community drop-ins – helping carers access support in ways that work for them.

On average, each carer advised gained an additional £33 in weekly income. Collectively, our Advisors helped carers gain £6,090 in expected weekly income gains – a new record for our service.

If you would like a welfare benefits check, or advice around cost-of-living, please get in touch with our Welfare Benefits Team via The Contact Point:
