CPAG is looking for help to monitor the real impacts of welfare reform in London.

They want to show how the changes to benefits, particularly housing benefit, are affecting London families and have designed a quick and easy to use online tool for advisers to input information about how they are affecting your clients, or individuals to tell us about their own experience.

The tool can be accesseed @ http://cpag.mysociety.org

... or, for more info, see http://www.cpag.org.uk/content/help-us-monitor-real-impacts-welfare-reform-london

Hello.

I know everyone is really busy helping people challenge decisions and get what money they can. However, if you do see client’s affected by welfare reform issues (bedroom tax, benefit cap, social fund “reform”, inability to get PIP where they would have got DLA) then it would be great if you can find a minute or two to use the above tool.

The information is really useful for giving a steer to CPAG’s policy work (and we rely on that policy work in our test cases etc).

Many thanks,

M
