Benefit reform

The Government’s Welfare Reform and Localism Acts both introduce a number of radical changes to the way your benefits are calculated and paid. These changes could significantly affect the amount of money you have coming in each week and may well reduce the amount of housing benefit you get. 

We have a really helpful leaflet that can explain the changes that may affect you.

You can also read more about the Bedroom tax, Universal Credit and how we can help.

The NHF have a leaflet that can shows you what you need to know about the changes to housing benefits.

The Government also have a helpful Benefit Calculator that can help you work out how much money you may lose.
