Benefit Advice for people aged 60 and over

Are you aged 60 or over?

We have a team of specially trained advisors who can advise you and your family which benefits you may be entitled to.

• You may be entitled to benefits such as Adult Disability Payment, Attendance Allowance, Employment Support Allowance, Pension Credit.

This could give you extra money to spend, to help with any daily costs you have, such as cleaners, gardeners, taxis, or anything else that improves your health and wellbeing.

 We provide confidential advice and help you get what's rightfully yours. We will also help to complete the benefit application forms.

We conduct our appointments by telephone, however, would consider a face-to-face service where exceptional circumstances require one.
