Help with benefit changes
From April 2023 the Government is making big changes to benefits.
These changes could affect the amount of benefits you receive and how benefits are paid to you.
If you receive benefits, whether that's housing benefit, employment support allowance, working tax credits, or any other welfare benefit, you will be affected.
Welfare Reform calculator
Our Welfare Reform calculator can help you find out how you will be affected by these changes. By answering some simple questions about your household and your income, we will be able to tell you if and how welfare reform affects you.
Benefits calculator
We want to make sure that you are receiving all of the benefits you are entitled to. Our simple Benefits Calculator will assess your circumstances and tell you what benefits you should be receiving.
