What would you do with an extra £240 a month? No, this isn’t some wild get-rich-quick scheme. It’s about getting what’s rightfully yours – the benefits you’re entitled to.

Are you missing out?

People across Britain are missing out on a staggering £23bn in unclaimed benefits every year, according to Policy in Practice.

Even if you’re already claiming benefits, you might find you’re being short-changed. Around one million current claimants are losing out on billions because their needs have changed since they first applied.

Don’t settle for less

New research from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) shows that in 2023-24, nearly one million people missed out on a colossal £3.1bn in extra payments - up from £2.3bn the previous year. Don’t let that be you.

Our benefits calculator could make a real difference to your life

In just one year, we helped over 15,000 customers increase their monthly income by an average of more than £240. That’s £2,800 extra in their pockets every year.

How does it work?

It’s incredibly easy to check what benefits you’re entitled to:

  • simply answer a few questions about your household, health and income
  • our calculator does the rest, giving you an estimate in seconds

What our customers had to say

“Excellent! Gave me good options and a lot of hope. Did not realise I could be entitled to certain grants and benefits which would help me steer through this time.”  Laurence 

“I am very happy with the advice I have been given. Also, my bills are beginning to be sorted and I have been able to claim benefits that I didn't know I was entitled to.” Linda

Get what you deserve – check your benefits now so you can live more and stress less.
