This is taken from a newsletter I proof read for a disability organisation.

How to Cut out the Cold
When faced with bills that keep climbing and household finances that are becoming more and more stretched, it can feel like there's nowhere to turn.
Free help is available. You can use three vital tools on the Turn2us website listed below to find help to manage your bills and Cut out the Cold. www.turn2us.org.uk
1. Use our free and easy-to-use online Benefits Calculator to see what welfare benefits you could claim.
2. Grants Search tool
Find grants and other support from charitable funds, based on your background and circumstances. ** Worth looking at this, it came up with over 80 possible grants for me as a female with MS.

3. My Money Steps tool
This free online debt advice service is free, confidential and simple to use.
