We recently helped a client who came to us with debts. We helped her to get a DRO to get her debts written off, but also helped her to ensure she was getting all the benefits she was entitled to and claim money back from HMRC and her bank. With encouragement she has engaged with social services and Harpenden Trust to turn her life around. She was so grateful for the support we provided and said "You've helped me with so much more than just my money, I've turned a new leaf in my life"![]()

We recently supported a client with their Personal Independence Payment appeal. The DWP scored their application with zero points across all criteria for both daily living and mobility. We submitted a Mandatory Reconsideration (first stage appeal) which was scored the same by the DWP. We then submitted an appeal to an independent panel which our client won. They are now receiving £128.65 per week, plus £8,735.35 backdated to March 2022 when they started the process. ![]()
A great result for our client who can now get support in everyday life with their mental health conditions.![]()

Sadly its common for initial applications and mandatory reconsiderations to be refused by the DWP, but around 70% of appeals to the independent panel are successful. ![]()
