  • Respond to communication received, including welfare benefits forms

Service User Comment: “As everyone knows, getting your own place is a very complicated process, I was worried about how I would manage with the paper work. NRSB have supported me through this, I now feel confident that I can keep everything straight, but know if I do struggle help is out there.”
