How we help

Our expert advisors can help you navigate the benefits system and get the support you’re entitled to.

Check your benefit entitlement

We’ll help you understand what benefits you may qualify for—including support you might not know exists.

Help with claims and reviews

We can support you in making new claims or reviewing current awards to ensure you’re receiving everything you should.

Claim backdated payments

If you’ve missed out on support in the past, we’ll help you request backdated awards where possible.

Challenge unfair decisions

We can help you appeal or challenge benefit decisions that don’t reflect your situation.

Apply for grants or emergency support

For those facing hardship, we can explore charitable grants or one-off help to get you through a difficult time.

Support beyond benefits

We offer wider advice too—including debt help, budgeting support, and help with employment or housing issues.
