Welfare rights service

Walsall Council Welfare Rights Service is responsible for the delivery of its service to all residents of the borough. We offer a home visiting service to all which has resulted in Walsall people gaining £8.5m collectively in additional income during 2008/2009.

The Welfare Rights Service in Walsall is unique in offering a whole range of services to residents and our partners, these include an intensive house to house survey that has been nationally recognised as best practice by the Audit Commission as well as Local Government Association and The Pension Service.  

We help residents to gain full entitlement to Welfare benefits but also concentrate on quality of life improvements.

Where the need arises we prepare a case and represent clients at independent appeals tribunals.
