During these difficult times, it is important to make sure that you and your family get all the help that you're entitled to.

There are a number of organisations in Derbyshire that can provide you with information about benefits and tax credits whether you are working or unemployed, sick or disabled, a parent, a young person, an older person, or a veteran.

If you are already claiming, they can also offer advice about payment issues or problems with your benefits.
