Complex Needs Advice, Advocacy & Support Project provide Information, Advice, Advocacy & Support to older people and their carers in Westminster on and around a range of complex issues they are facing in their lives. This includes but is not limited to welfare benefits, housing & social care, health care, bereavement, family life and loneliness.

Going through a significant life event can be daunting and lonely. Sometimes you may just need someone to talk it through with and sometimes you may need more support to actually get to the bottom of what is going on.

Help available can be by going through complex forms and paperwork. Help to fill them in and/or understand what is being asked. If you are struggling financially, we can help to maximise benefits and source any grants and charitable payments that may be available to you.

They will aim to advocate on your behalf with organisations and professionals, with you as the decision-maker, and at all times we will be guided by your views and wishes in order to help you make the right choices. They can, if necessary and with your permission, make referrals to other services and organisations if they are better placed to meet your needs.

The aim of the service is to ensure you have maximum control over the decisions and choices you make about your life while having the support to navigate around life's complex issues.
