Are you getting the benefits you are entitled to?

The Derbyshire unemployed Workers Centre (DUWC) have launched a campaign to ensure that former mineworkers, their partners and widows across Derbyshire, who have reached state pension age, are in receipt of all of the benefits they are entitled to. With funding from CISWO North Derbyshire Miner’s Welfare Trust, the focus is on Attendance Allowance as it is not means tested, something which tends to put people off claiming benefits. We spoke to Matt Hunt from DUWC about the help people can receive.
