Benefits Advice

With East Birmingham experiencing some of the highest levels of unemployment, many residents rely on benefits. Combined with widespread difficulties in accessing the correct entitlements, our team is based on-site to provide benefits advice in Urdu, Punjabi, Bangla, Potwari, and English. These are the five most commonly spoken languages in Birmingham’s super-diverse communities.

Our team, many of whom have lived experience supporting relatives with disabilities, bring extensive knowledge in assisting individuals with lifelong conditions. This enables them to offer robust, empathetic guidance to ensure people receive the benefits and support they are entitled to.

“I wasn’t aware of the disability support my mother was entitled to! Thank you so much.” – Shazia, whose mother is immobile.
