Welfare Rights Services

BNENC’s Welfare Rights Programme was developed out of the increased demand and need for local support.

The team is led by BNENC’s CEO and employs two full time qualified welfare rights workers, with one worker supporting outreach sessions at various locations throughout the wider community ensuring that individuals can access support locally. BNENC’s other welfare rights worker is centre based at the Breckfield Centre. The service is free and confidential and operates Monday to Friday from 09.00am to 4.00pm.

As well as benefits, beneficiaries may be eligible to Fuel Vouchers or parents may be able to get assistance with free school uniform from BNENC’s School Uniform Programme.
