Benefits Advice

When someone in the family is told they have cancer, or other life-limiting disease, it causes considerable stress.

This stress is made much worse when there are financial worries. These may be caused by an inability to work, extra hospital visits for treatment, or for other reasons.

There is a range of benefits available for people who are sick, disabled, caring for a sick person or bereaved.

Our Benefits Adviser is widely experienced in advising people, in confidence, about their entitlement to benefits.

Sometimes when one benefit is awarded, it brings entitlement to further financial aid. Our Benefits Adviser is able to give guidance and practical help about the appropriate benefits.

If you have been registered with us through your G.P. and have any questions about entitlements for yourself, or someone for whom you care, or if you need help completing or understanding forms, our Benefits Adviser will be happy to advise you.
