Following a great debate in the House of Lords last week on the Legal aid Bill, which showed the strength of opposition to the Government’s plans to remove legal aid for welfare benefits, Scope is keen to keep up the pressure on the Government as the Bill carries on through Parliament.
To do this, we need your stories about how legal aid has made a difference and helped getting the right benefits - whether you needed help for your claim, or have helped someone else, tell us your experiences and why legal aid matters to you.
We want to make sure the real experiences of using legal aid for welfare benefits cases are heard by Government. We’ll use these stories to continue to influence Government as well as to encourage more disabled and other people to share their own!
Hi Cristina - This site is an Irish finacial site and as most if not all advice is based on Irish tax and social welfare system I don't think you will get much help I'm afraid. Best of luck with the campaign though.
