Equity Universal Credit Seminar

Many of the welfare benefits people claim to sustain a livelihood in the performing arts are being abolished by the government's welfare reforms.  Universal Credit will replace income-based Jobseeker's Allowance, Housing Benefit and many other benefits. Join us for this free session on Universal Credit to find out about entitlement under the reformed system, how it will work and what will happen to the benefits you claim now.

We are running these seminars across the UK - the dates and cities are listed below. 

All our Universal Credit seminars are free to attend, but we need to know numbers in advance please, as if take-up is not sufficient for a seminar we will cancel it. 

In order to reserve a place and be kept informed about times, venues and any changes please email us making it clear which seminar you wish to attend.
