Benefits – help for older people
Working in partnership with East Sussex Age UK, dedicated benefits outreach staff can visit people in their own homes, work out benefits they are entitled to and help fill out any necessary forms.
Outreach staff can also put people in touch with relevant care agencies if the home visit highlights a particular need.
This scheme has helped many people to improve their quality of life.
To find out more, contact your local Age UK office.
The national Age UK website has more information on the different benefits, including an online benefits checker.
