Welfare Advice Service

Our Welfare Advice Service is run by trained advisers who understand the issues facing parents who have a child with cancer. They can answer any questions, from money issues to problems at work, housing and consumer rights, and carry out full financial checks to see what benefits young cancer patients and their families may be entitled to. Our welfare advisers can offer expert support and advice on a range of issues, including:

benefits
tax
housing issues
consumer issues with utility companies
how to manage debt
your rights at work
immigration (in relation to benefits only)
family, relationship and legal advice

The service is free and confidential. We‘re here to help young cancer patients and their parents understand and protect their rights, navigate the maze of benefits and other financial support provided by the government, and to make sure they get the help they’re entitled to.
