To provide high-quality specialist welfare benefits advice, casework and representation to people referred to the Law Centre through CELC’s projects and trusted community and voluntary sector partners.
The role will help clients understand and secure their entitlements, challenge incorrect decisions and resolve problems as early as possible, reducing the risk that financial hardship leads to wider difficulties in their lives.
