What other help can I get?
If you are a parent and wondering whether you can afford to return to work then we are here to help.
Our welfare rights service can talk to you about your circumstances and do a 'better off calculation'. This will tell you what benefits or working tax credit you might be entitled to and let you know whether you will still be better off at work when the cost of childcare is taken into account. It only takes about 20 minutes and could save you money.
Call our benefits helpline on 0845 120 2985. It is open between 11am and 4.30pm Monday to Friday. All calls will be charged at a local rate. Or you can email the team at welfarerights@derbyshire.gov.uk
