These pages have  been produced as part of a unique partnership project in Dumfries & Galloway made possible through funding from Dumfries & Galloway Council. Lots of agencies will be working together to contact 11,000 older people across the region. We hope to help a large number of older people who are missing out on claiming benefits just now. Full confidential benefits checks will be carried out by a local Dumfries and Galloway dedicated staff team.
