Community Law helped me loads back when they were called Welfare Rights. I used them when I was on benefits and I use them now as a Support Worker to help my Service Users. The system just keeps getting more complex over the years and can create stress for people especially with mental health needs. Such an invaluable service and have always struggled for funding. Sarah and her team are heroes.
Shame that just at a time when people most need a well run Housing Benefits service , the previously good service run under the now defunct Northampton Borough Council as turned into a complete shambles since being taken under new managment by West Northants. Most of the experienced staff have voted with their feet and left and there is a mountainous backlog and it is looking like it will only get worse

According to the notice in the window, the office in Rushden closed last year. Great shame
