Our Aim
We work to ensure that citizens of Wakefield make the most of the Welfare Law. Our aim is to:
- Provide high quality advice and information on Welfare Benefits and Financial Assessments
- Assist Service Users or carers with claiming for any welfare benefits that they may be entitled to
- Actively promote the take-up of benefits
Equal Opportunities
We treat all people with dignity and respect, recognising the value of each individual. We are committed to eliminating all forms of discrimination in service delivery and employment on grounds of race, gender, disability, age, sexuality and religion. To this end we aim to promote quality of access and effective use of its service and facilities.
