Lambeth Projects

Every Pound Counts offers a free benefits check and advice to ensure you claim your full benefits entitlement to:
· People aged 60 and above,
· People living with long term illness,
· Disabled people,
· People with sensory impairments,
· Children who are ill or disabled including children with special support needs because of developmental or behavioural conditions,
· Or the carers of any of these people living in Lambeth.
If you fall into one of these groups, you could be entitled to more money than you are claiming.

With Lambeth Council's Every Pound Counts campaign, we aim to help make sure you claim all the benefit support you are entitled to receive. So, don't delay. If you live in Lambeth, contact us and make sure you claim what is rightfully yours.
