This also really helped those who wanted to change their circumstances by being able to understand what effect it would have on their Universal credit. I found that this tool really helped individuals to make decisions, and feel more confident as one of the biggest worries for some was not getting financial support once they start work.

I use Policy in Practice every day in my work, and it makes everything so much easier. My main role involves working with individuals who are currently homeless and want to move into a home through the housing association I work for.
