Over £24 billion in benefits goes unclaimed across Great Britain every year — and in Ireland, nobody even counts it. Your readers, tenants, members and clients are missing money they're entitled to. Our free tools help them find it — and you can offer them under your own roof.

The checker gives general information with official-source links — not financial advice. We never collect your users' personal details through the embed.

For your advisers, not just your visitors

The embed above is what your clients see. There are two more tools behind it, built for the people who actually do the work.

Why us

The People's Pocket exists for one reason: the entitlements system is a maze, and the people who need support most are the least likely to claim it. We publish plain-English guides for Ireland, Northern Ireland and England, free tools, and the research behind The Unclaimed Billions. Everything is free for the people using it — partnerships are how we reach more of them.

Talk to us: zak@peoplespocket.com — we reply fast, and pilots can be live within days.
