Welfare Rights fact sheets 2008 now live!
27 April 2008
Our Welfare Rights fact sheets have been updated for 2008 and are now available to download online in pdf, Word and audio format.
The 10 fact sheets, which are produced annually by our Welfare Rights team, give clear and accessible explanations of the complex benefit rules and procedures. They also include useful tips on important points to include when making a claim.
This year we have a new fact sheet on Health Benefits, which includes information on sight tests and vouchers for glasses and contact lenses, information on prescriptions and the low income scheme. We have expanded our Tax Credits fact sheet to include information on Child Tax Credit. Our Young People in Full-time Education fact sheet has also been expanded to include information for students in further and higher education.
