To mark the achievements of our Theory of Change project that was funded by the Department for Communities we held an event at the Skainos Centre in Belfast on July 3rd 2019.
The Department for Communities has put additional support in place to assist Post Office card account and HM Government Payment Exception Service customers who are unable to access their benefit or pension payments during the Coronavirus pandemic.
We are now facing a similar recession to 2008, however this time personal credit is out of control in UK & NI, the Banks and lending sector seem to have learned nothing from their previous mistakes.
As you may know the Department for Communities (DfC) is rolling out measures to ensure the advice sector is prepared to assist the general public through the implementation of the ongoing changes to the welfare system.
