BENEFITS INFORMATION AND ADVICE
If you need information, advice or help with any benefits issues, our tenancy sustainment team can speak to you on the phone or in the office, or visit you at home.
We can also help you to complete benefit claim forms, or seek other financial assistance.
To find out your entitlement to certain benefits, you can also visit Scottish Borders Council’s website and complete the benefits calculator.
Money Matters
Whatever your income, it’s a good idea to manage your money carefully, as this can reduce problems, prevent debt, and help you get more from your money.
When you’re on a low income, it can be difficult to afford all the things you have to pay for.
For help with organising your money, get a financial budgeting planner
here. Our Money Matters leaflet also provides basic guidance on bank accounts, managing gas and electricity costs, and other household bills.
Council Tax
Tenants are separately liable for the payment of Council Tax.
If you need information on Council Tax, ring Scottish Borders Council on 0300 100 1800.
