Welfare Rights Advice
Welfare Rights Advice is information about which benefits and tax credits you can claim and what you can do if you are not happy with a benefit or tax credit decision. You can also get information about how to manage your money problems, and we can also advise on cheaper ways to borrow.
Castle Morpeth Housing has a Welfare Rights Advisor, Philip Soden. You can see Philip in the Castle Morpeth Housing office or by home visit. Some issues may just need a phone call. We can also give you information about other organisations that can help you if you would prefer.
Philip can be contacted on 0191 292 2648 or e-mail philip.soden@nomade5.co.uk
Further information is available in our Welfare Rights Advice booklet. Opens in a new window
