We are pleased to announce that we were successful in our recent application to the Santander Foundation. The funding received will provide an additional day per work for a year of an Elderly Debt Management Worker, covering North, East and West Leeds.
Older people (60+) from across the city can now access this service which was previously limited to South Leeds. More than 200 older people are expected to benefit from this extra day per week which will primarily provide support in claiming benefits and managing debts.
