The Disability Rights UK advice service for member organisations is available Monday to Friday.
The service is aimed at helping our members answer complex queries.
The main focus is on tax credits and benefit matters, but the advice service also provides generalist advice covering welfare issues.

Our members’ advice service is available on 0207 247 9342 Monday to Friday between 10.00 am to 12.00 noon and 2.00pm to 4.00pm or by emailing kbutler@disabilityalliance.org at any time.
While we cannot afford to run a telephone advice service for individuals at present we aim to provide information about benefits thorough our publications, factsheets and our website. Our guide to Finding a Local Advice Centre is available at www.disabilityalliance.org/f15.htm.
If you are being treated less favourably or experience discrimination because of your disability, contact Unity Law at www.unity-law.co.uk or on 0114 361 0000.
