Income Maximisation Day

Need advice on maximising your income or reducing your fuel bills?

An event has been organised by the Borough of Poole’s Housing and Community Services on the 28 October between 9.30am and 5.30pm at the Dolphin Centre, Poole.

It is being held in partnership with other agencies and service providers including Dorset Energy Advice Centre, Revenue and Benefits and New Deal, the Dolphin Credit Union, Department of Work and Pensions and Energy Watch to raise awareness, provide help, assistance, advice and support to all members of the public on maximising their income and tackling fuel poverty.

Cllr Bill Wretham, Cabinet Portfolio Holder for Housing and Social Inclusion, said: "This an excellent idea to allow local people to find out more about the financial help they’re entitled to, and at the same time, cut the cost of heating their homes. This would result in them having more money at their disposal."

If you would like information on this issue, qualified staff will be available all day in the Dolphin Centre in the plaza area outside Beales to assist you. No appointments are necessary, just stop by.
