Welfare Rights and Debt Advice Service

If you live or work in Salford we can offer you free, confidential and independent advice on your welfare benefits, tax credits or debt problems. We can help you find out about the benefits and tax credits you are entitled to, assist with claim forms, and argue your case at an appeal if you disagree with a decision. If you have debt problems we can help you draw up financial statements, negotiate with your creditors and represent you in court.
