Are you getting the right help?

Are you getting the right benefits?

In the UK, millions of people are not receiving the benefits they are entitled to.  This is simply because they are unaware of their entitlement, or assume they are not eligible.

This tool, developed by InBest, will help you calculate the right benefits for you.  If you are entitled to extra benefits, it will then signpost you to the right place to make a claim.
