Christmas can be a difficult time financially for many families and individuals. Our Welfare Advice Team is here to help you if you are facing financial problems. If you are having trouble paying your rent, the important thing to remember is not to ignore the problem. Please talk to us as we'll always try to help.

 

Please remember not to ignore the problem, as sometimes small debts build up and get out of control. Please come and talk to us about matters relating to:

•           Welfare Benefits

•           Rent and Debt

•           Gas and electric

•           General money advice

 

We offer a wide range of ways you can pay your rent including setting up a standing order or direct debit with your bank, making payments online through your MyGateway Account and making payments with your rent card.

If you need financial support, please visit your council's website to check your eligibility for Discretionary Housing Benefit Payments or other available benefits and exemptions.
