Our forum (FMAUK) is lucky enough to have our own Benefits Advisor and her name is Janet.

Please see her details below:

FMA UK have a dedicated benefit helpline, you can ring Janet, or email her for help, advice and assistance:

FMA UK Welfare Benefits Helpline

Phone: 0844 887 2450

Fax: 0844 826 9033

Link To webpage:

You can send an email from this page: fmauk.org/contactsmenu/help

If you need any further help, please contact anyone in Admin who will be more than happy to help you.

You could also make an appointment with the Citizens Advice who are very helpful and discreet. Your local council may have a Disability Advocate who could advise you too.

I wish you luck, the forms are quite formidable.

Hi bluebell99,

I wanted to get in touch with Janet but the link in the message above doesn't work, do you know how else i can contact her by message?

Hi

It can be very fickle and I may have put it in wrongly. If you look at the blue Pinned Posts and scroll view more you will see information that BlueMermaid3 has posted.

Alternatively if you go to our Mother Site fmauk.org (and I know that one works) you will find links to it.

If it is a specific question put the main word in the search box, also look at Topics, Benefits and Work again in blue on the right.

I do apologise for giving you this extra hassle, sorry.

Go to the site Benefit and work. It's great and helps you fill in all the forms and gives good explanations of what is needed. I have been a member for years.
