Help with money and benefits

There are a lot of posts about benefits and money on here. These can be very tricky to answer without knowing a lot more about you.

To try to help, next month we have Suzette here from Carers UK to answer benefits and money questions - particularly questions about carers - healthunlocked.com/mencap/p...

There are also many excellent websites out there with lots of information about claiming benefits. Turn2us is particularly good, and they even have an online benefits calculator. Have a look here - turn2us.org.uk/Get-Support

Best wishes

Oh, these benefits. I don't like benefits in any form. For me, benefits are created only for those people who cannot do without them. The rest for me are just lazy people who live only on some benefits. There is a demo account on fxgiants.com/fxg/platforms/..., which I used to also consider a benefit, but believe me, this benefit will coolly save you money at first.

Not what you're looking for?
