This is a really useful tool when dealing with rough sleepers who may get offers of accommodation. Love the way it tells me what I can apply for to get help with various utilities/grants etc. Really helpful. Reviewed on: 5th June 2025

We use this at my place of work and it is incredibly helpful for showing people what they could be making. I have also used it myself to see what I could and couldn't claim. I have also recommended it to my friends to help them work out if they could claim anything. overall incredible! Reviewed on: 5th June 2025

It’s an eye opener!

Working for Redbridge gave me an insight as to how applicants affordabilities are calculated and was an eye opener to what is considered a priority expenditure and what isn’t. I also think it helps with budgeting and I have used it for myself once before to figure out my expenditure. Reviewed on: 3rd June 2025
