Event synopsis
What can local authorities do to help people become financially independent?
Leading local authorities are developing new approaches to supporting people toward independence.

Organised by
We believe the welfare system can work more effectively.
It can help people towards greater independence if we make it simple for people and organisations to understand.
We simplify the welfare system by showing people how policy affects them.
We show local authorities how individual households are affected by all policy changes, now and in the future.
We talk to government on a national level to influence policy.
