Working for SNG, we offer this service to our customers and the outcomes have been amazing, being able to save customers money is just an incredible feeling by helping them budget, but also showing them what they can claim if not already doing so feels great. Reviewed on: 14th July 2026

The Policy in Practice website review

The Policy in Practice website and Better Off Calculator are excellent tools for supporting customers with benefits and employment decisions. The website is easy to navigate and provides clear, up-to-date information. The Better Off Calculator is particularly useful for showing how work or changes in hours can affect a customer's income and benefits. The tool is accurate, easy to use, and saves time when providing advice. It helps customers understand their financial position and make informed decisions about employment. Overall, it is a valuable resource that I would highly recommend to anyone working in employment support or welfare advice. Reviewed on: 13th July 2026

Policy and Practice Is KEY!

Policy and Practice helps me assess clients' financial circumstances before making any offers of private rented properties. It provides clear and accurate information that I can easily explain to clients, supported by reliable figures. The system is easy to navigate and is kept up to date with government changes, such as recent updates to Child Benefit rates. I also find it particularly useful that it breaks down the different Universal Credit elements rather than simply providing an overall figure, giving a much clearer picture of a client's entitlement. One feature my clients especially appreciate is when Policy and Practice identifies unclaimed benefits they may be entitled to but were previously unaware of. I can then direct them to the appropriate department for further advice and assistance in making a claim. After all, who doesn’t appreciate finding out they could be entitled to a little extra money?
