Mapping Welfare benefits advice services in Swansea and Neath Port Talbot
29 Aug 2012

"People in Wales face the toughest challenge to their well-being for decades from a combination of economic crisis, job losses, a squeeze on earnings and rising prices. They face, in addition, cuts to public services and a radical reform of social security benefits.”

With this in mind, Swansea Neath Port Talbot CAB are undertaking some work designed to look at:

"a coordinated response to the Welfare Reform challenges and how we can locally provide a comprehensive welfare benefits advice service that makes the best of the resources we have.

As part of this, SCVS have agreed to help with the 'mapping' of Welfare benefits advice which is offered in Swansea.

If your organisation offers support to clients or beneficiaries which is in any way related to Welfare benefits advice, could you please take a few moments to complete the online survey, which is available at:

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/welfareadviceaug12

The survey will close at 11pm on Thursday 30th August.

If you would prefer to complete a hard copy of the survey, please contact: Gail Hanlin at SCVS on 01792 544011 or email: gail_hanlin@scvs.org.uk

A brief summary provided by Swansea Neath Port Talbot CAB based on the Executive Summary of “Wales on the Edge” (a Bevan Foundation Report for Cuts Watch Cymru on Welfare Reform) is available to view from Resources to the right of the page to give you a wider context for this mapping exercise.
