Optivo - Money & benefits guidance*

Coronavirus: Money and financial support

We understand this is a difficult time for you. Our information is designed to help those worrying about money and paying their bills.

Getting help with debt

We'll do everything we can to support you and offer free guidance and support that can help you to reduce your debts.

Benefits support

We want you to receive the financial support that you're entitled to, so our team are on hand to support you with the welfare benefits system.

Borrowing money

With lending companies wanting to ‘help’ it can be confusing to find the right loan for you. We can offer free guidance to help you decide.

* Optivo’s money guidance service helps residents to maximise their income through:

•   budgeting support
•   applying for eligible welfare benefit entitlements
•   and accessing internal and external grants

Our service does not provide consumer debt advice, which is an activity regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. For consumer debt issues, we will signpost to a regulated debt advice provider.
