Developing a benefits advice partnership
Developing a partnership with an organisation that provides specialist advice is a good way to meet the need for local benefits support.
An advice partnership usually involves an MS Society group funding a worker to provide specialist advice for an agreed number of hours or days per week or month. This enables people affected by MS to access the support they need quickly and at a location that is accessible to them. A further benefit of providing a service in partnership is that the group can ensure that the advice service provider has an understanding of MS.
