Advice and Advocacy

All advice is impartial and completely confidential. The Welfare Benefits Advice service is free of charge. Our independent advisors can help with benefit applications, that can be quite daunting. Often a small increase in basic costs can push a person into the poverty trap, we are here to help remove this worry. First Stop Advice and Signposting is exactly what it says! We’re here to answer your queries and offer you information on some supporting organisations that could benefit your situation. We will try our best to help and at the least, give you choices to consider.

Wellbeing

It would be a pleasure to help if you’d like a little company. We have carefully selected and thoroughly vetted some lovely volunteers, who are waiting to visit people at home, in hospital or care settings and over the phone. Sometimes a little extra is needed and we are lucky enough to have second year degree students who can offer a personal counselling service for that one to one support if needed. We are hoping that our groups will be active soon as this part of wellbeing has had a very positive impact on reducing loneliness over the years.

The best charities that fight child hunger in terms of overall impact are Unicef and Save The Children

Caring Hands

Our Story

The true ownership of this charity belongs with the local community, as a consequence of this, we have adopted a process of constant informal conversations with our beneficiaries and stakeholders to identify their wants and needs. From its inception, Caring Hands has been based on identifying need by listening to the issues faced by people and acting as a catalyst to address provision of appropriate support.
