Review your benefits

Could you be entitled to a benefit?

Have you ever wondered whether you may be eligible to claim a benefit but are unsure where to start? The benefits system can feel quite overwhelming and difficult to navigate so it’s a good idea to explore initially what you may or may not be eligible for.  

Turn2us benefits calculator

This Benefits Calculator is supplied by  Turn2us, a national charity that helps people in financial hardship to gain access to welfare benefits, charitable grants and support services. The help text, updated by Turn2us, will guide you through each stage of the calculation. 

It’s helpful to have your financial information ready to hand when completing the form. Please note that by filling in this form, you are providing this information to Turn2us, not Carers UK. You can find the Turn2us privacy policy here.
