How it works
We offer you support and information on a range of employment law topics, HR processes, health & wellbeing and much more. We can also connect you with other services that you might find useful like housing, benefits, and debt. We will provide you with one-to-one support and help you during this time of crisis within our community. Our support could also include help with writing letters to your employer or we can speak to your employer on your behalf should you require it.
