resour￿$ available mean that It Is not always possible lo increase oulpul in all areas of service provision. The Benefit
Advice Shop continues lo lace a sèrious threat lo ils curfenl level of provision with culbacS(s lo ils funding Whilst the
organisation is working hard lo try lo replace this funding, It Is finding il difficult. The Benefit Advice Shop would like to
extend ils Ihanlfs to those organisalions which have continued lo provide support over the year5 as well as those new
