Welfare line to re-open soon
June 01, 2018
Action for M.E. is pleased to announce that our Welfare Advice and Support Service will be open again by mid to late June.
We have recruited a new welfare rights advisor and aim to have our welfare rights telephone line and email service up and running again soon.
We'll announce a specific date as soon as we can - keep an eye on our news feed for more information.
While we are not able to provide specialist advice for complex welfare benefit issues while our Welfare Rights Line is closed, you can still contact us for general information about welfare benefits, and/or download our detailed welfare benefits factsheets.
If you need help applying for Employment and Support Allowance or Personal Independence Payment, you can use SEAP’s benefit support app. This helps you prepare by testing any application form answers you have drafted to estimate how many points you might score.
You can also contact the following for further welfare benefits information:
- Citizens Advice Bureau
- DIAL
- Law Centres
- Your local council, which may offer welfare rights advice or be able to signpost you to local services.
