Our work
Our services aim to remove the barriers that prevent people
most in need from getting the funds that are available to them.
If you are an individual seeking help for yourself or
someone close to you, Turn2us aims to help you access the
money available to you. For the first time, in one place on our
website, you can find information and tools to help you find the
support, based on your specific needs and circumstances. You can
also register for a personal ‘My Turn2us’ account, which allows you
to make confidential enquiries and applications directly to many of
the grant-giving charities that you identify using our Grants
Search section.
If you are an intermediary – one of the
thousands of advisers, welfare officers, support workers and
volunteer home visitors who have regular face-to-face contact with
people in financial need – Turn2us can help you find the right
resources to support the people you are working with. You can also
store individuals’ details and applications in your confidential
‘My Turn2us’ account, enabling you to access and update files as
you need to.
If you are a charity that gives grants to
individuals, Turn2us provides a comprehensive, accessible
service that can help you increase your access to people who could
benefit from your support, especially those who are hard to reach.
Our flexible system allows you to tailor your charity’s details to
suit your needs and update them as necessary. Enquiries and
applications can be accepted online or directly through the Turn2us
website. You can also access lists of everyone who has applied to
you via Turn2us and check the current status of any requests for
help.
