Finances & Budgeting 
Transition from unemployed to employment can sometimes result in arrears whilst waiting for wages and in work benefits. We offer support with financial matters including “Better Off In Work Calculations”, budgeting advice and signposting to CAB, First-stop Shops and MAS. We can also act on an advocacy basis for clients, including sending letters regarding rent arrears etc. and accompanying clients to their local first-stop shops. ​
