Now that Universal Credit has been rolled out across the UK, the migration of claimants on existing means-tested benefits onto the new system is due to start next Summer. Many claimants are likely to be worse off in the long run. At this uncertain economic and political time, keeping up with the new rules is crucial.

Fully updated for 2019/20 it includes:

Benefits for people living with health conditions, injury or disability and for carers, children and young people
How the system works, how to claim and how to challenge a decision
Support for people in education or work, not in work, looking for work or in retirement
Getting and paying for care and support services
