Turn2us is a new charity offering a groundbreaking online service to help the millions of
people in need in the UK.
You can access information on all benefits and grants available from both statutory and voluntary
organisations, at no cost, through turn2us. In many cases, applications for support can be made
directly from the website and they keep people informed by email or by sending a text to a mobile phone.
Millions of people in the UK are living below the poverty line and yet up to £8 billion in income-related
benefit goes unclaimed every year (DWP 2006). Research shows that there is low awareness of the
support available from the voluntary sector despite the existence of nearly 800 charities giving help to
people in need. Crucially, the people who need the help the most, find it hardest to find the help available.
Turn2us aims to address this wide scale and urgent need. Through turn2us, thousands of people from
diverse backgrounds will have access to information that could make a real difference to their lives.
Elizabeth Finn Care founded turn2us and is funding
the first phase of its service development.
