Benefits Advice

It's important to make sure that you get all the help that you're entitled to. Newcastle Citizens Advice can give you information on benefits and tax credits if you are working or unemployed, sick or disabled, a parent, a young person, an older person or a veteran.

We also also information about council tax and housing costs, national insurance, payment of benefits and problems with benefits.
