Budgeting & Finances

At My SiLS, we understand that managing money can be a real challenge for many individuals. Whether you're a tenant needing to pay rent or trying to save for future expenses, it's crucial to have a clear grasp of your finances. Our team is here to help you navigate through the complexities of budgeting and finance.

Many of our service users find themselves unsure of how to balance their income and expenses. Questions like, "How much can I spend?" or "Am I saving enough?" often arise. Additionally, life can be unpredictable, and it's not always easy to foresee upcoming costs or debt obligations. Our support is designed to alleviate these worries, guiding you to feel more informed and in control of your financial situation.

We also recognise the importance of understanding benefits. Knowing what you're entitled to ensures you receive the necessary support to effectively manage your finances. Unfortunately, the benefits system can be complicated, which is why our dedicated staff are here to assist you in completing any required paperwork accurately, including helping you set up a bank account for your payments. Our aim is to empower you to take charge of your financial future.
