Benefits
A percentage of what is earned goes to the government in income tax. This money is used for a variety of different things such as defence, education, health and Social security funding.
Social security funding helps provide money for people who may need it most and those who may not be able to work for whatever reason.
There are a huge range of benefits for different situations and issues. Speak to your Personal Adviser or visit your nearest Connexions centre and ask if you are eligible for any benefits.
