Government advice

You can use an independent, free and anonymous benefits calculator on the GOV.UK website to check what you could be entitled to.

A lot of the financial support currently available is paid automatically if you claim the relevant benefit, and claiming the right benefit can make you eligible for further financial help.

You can find out more on the GOV.WALES website by or telephone on 0808 250 5700.
