🎃 Spooky savings this Halloween! 👻

Halloween is just around the corner, and between costumes, decorations and sweet treats, the costs can quickly creep up!

But having fun doesn't have to mean spending a fortune. 💙

We've put together a few simple ways to enjoy Halloween for less, from getting creative with things you already have at home to swapping costumes and making your own decorations.

Sometimes the best Halloween memories come from the simplest things, and there's no need to spend more than you're comfortable with.

Have you got any favourite money-saving Halloween ideas? We'd love to hear them in the comments! 🎃

Paying hundreds of pounds just to get help with a form shouldn’t feel normal.
We’ve heard of people being quoted up to £450 for support with benefit forms, and for many people that kind of cost just isn’t realistic.

That’s why matters to us.

As part of our partnership with We Are Group, Navigate can support people who need help using certain HMCTS online services, including benefit appeals and other court and tribunal processes.

Sometimes people don’t need someone to take over. They just need someone patient, clear and supportive to help them through it 💙

We started after hearing that someone had been quoted hundreds of pounds just to get help with a benefits appeal.

When you’re already worried about money, your health or what happens next, paying a huge fee for support shouldn’t be another thing added to the list.

Through our partnership with We Are Group, Navigate can support people who need help accessing and completing HMCTS online services, including benefit appeals.

Our support is free, friendly and focused on helping you understand what you need to do next 💙

One of our team recently came across a client who had been quoted £450 for help with a PIP appeal.

That really stuck with us.

When someone is already dealing with a difficult decision, forms, deadlines and the stress that can come with an appeal, the last thing they should be worrying about is whether they can afford to get help.

That’s why our campaign matters to us 💙

Through our partnership with We Are Group, Navigate is able to offer support through the HMCTS Assisted Digital service, helping people with online forms and appeals and making the process feel a little less overwhelming.

Because support and advice shouldn’t be a luxury, and asking for help shouldn’t come with a huge price tag.
