Book about state benefits
Options

Posts: 155 Forumite
I am wondering if someone can recommend a comprehensive book about state benefits. UC and disability benefits in particular.
I am looking for a book which references legislation. At the moment I have the one from CPAG which is very good, but now out of date. Does anyone have any further recommendations for books?

CPAG is the go-to publisher. Which actual book do you want as there are different one e.g. Debt Advice, Benefits for Migrants, Universal Credit etc
Is it this one?

What you can do is to search the online catalogue of your local library to see if they have it. If not they can usually source a copy from a central store or the British Library.

- When on someone else's be it a road, a pavement, a right of way or a property there are rules. Don't assume there are none.
- "Free parking" doesn't mean free of rules. Check the rules and if you don't like them, go elsewhere

Many thanks for these replies. I think CPAG are the way to go.
I cannot post links yet, but £17 cheaper through Great British Books. Seems to good to be true. What is the catch?

It’s republished every year. If you can wait, from memory, the new editions usually come out in late April/early May. If you’ve seen a cheap price you may wish to check that it is the current (2019/2020) edition and not an older one.BriNylon said:.I am looking for a book which references legislation.

Disability Rights Handbook is similarly updated annually.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Some rules may be different in other parts of UK.1
