TASC launches new benefits and debt clinic for ambulance workers

The Ambulance Staff Charity (TASC) has launched a new monthly online Benefits and Debt Clinic, offering free, confidential support for ambulance workers who are worried about debt or are unsure about benefits.

The monthly online clinic makes it easier than ever for ambulance workers to access expert financial guidance on anything from debt solutions to managing a budget or applying for Universal Credit. Appointments can be booked at a time that suits them, with confidential one-to-one support from a TASC money expert.

Julie Delaney, TASC’s Benefits and Debt Advisor, said:

“Financial worries can quickly become overwhelming, especially when you’re unsure where to turn for advice. Whether someone is struggling with debt, needs help understanding their benefit entitlement or simply wants reassurance about their finances, we’re here to provide practical, confidential support. Sometimes one conversation is all it takes to help someone feel more in control.”

Angie Crashley, TASC’s Wellbeing Support Manager, said:

“Ambulance workers dedicate their careers to helping others, but many don’t know where to turn when they’re facing financial challenges themselves. Our new Benefits and Debt Advice Clinic provides expert, confidential support that is tailored to the unique pressures of working in the ambulance service. We want every member of our ambulance community to know that support is available and that no one should have to face financial worries alone.”

Appointments are free for eligible members of the ambulance community and can be booked online at www.theasc.org.uk/benefitsanddebtclinic.
