This volume in the Help with Housing Costs series covers the rules for housing benefit and discretionary payments across the United Kingdom. It is designed to complement volume 1, which covers universal credit and council tax rebates. Designed as the successor to the popular Guide to Housing Benefit it has been written in a refreshing plain English style that makes it easy to use while retaining many of features of its predecessor that readers will find reassuringly familiar. This new edition has been fully revised and updated to incorporate all the changes over the past year.
