Question
Benefits - Can I apply for benefits?

Answer
If you are struggling to pay your rent or your council tax you could apply for benefits.

Using our online benefits calculator you can see if you could qualify and get an estimate of how much you could be entitled to.

The calculation will take into account;

* Your income
* Any savings or shares you have
* Anyone living with you
* Other benefits you may be receiving
* How many rooms you are entitled to
* The area you live in

If you do qualify you can download an application form from our downloads section. You will need to send in evidence to support your application.
