The project is being run by ENABLE Scotland, in partnership with Citizens Advice Rights Fife. The project has identified that potential financial issues may exist within families who have a disabled child or children aged 8 years or under (Pre and Post diagnosis). The service can answer many typical scenarios, problems or questions a family in this situation may have i.e.:
Having to leave work to provide care;
Grants available;
Budgeting advice;
Debt advice;
Benefits and Allowance Checks;
Will it pay to work part-time;
Child tax and working tax credits;
Trust deeds;
Payday loans, credit card debt etc.
This service is free and can also be provided "at home".
