Welfare Support & Welfare Rights

Pensioners Link can refer people to Wigan Council's Welfare Support & Welfare Rights Team, where people over the age of 50 can receive advice on benefits eligibility and help with completing application forms.  Appointments with this team can be face to face (usually at one of the borough's Life Centres) or at home if you are house bound. 

 

To contact the Welfare Support and Welfare Rights team, you can also call them directly on:
