Services
Help for adults - benefits and grants
The council's Advice Shop can help you to check that your current benefits are correct, advising you what benefits to claim and how to claim them. We will also assist with the completing of forms, taking your claim further (if you have been refused benefit) and representation at tribunal. The Advice Shop can also offer advice on employment problems and problems with debt. The Advice Shop is also available to discuss a range of advice, including welfare advice matters.
There is no fee involved for any assistance from the Advice Shop.
