Another Busy Year Do you need help or advice? Over the last year Citizens Advice Surrey Heath has helped over 3,000 local people and families who made 14,000 enquiries. Here are a few examples: Homelessness Prevention - A disabled single mother had rent arrears of over £2000. Possession proceedings had begun and she and her son were in danger of be-ing evicted and becoming homeless. She had large debts including a water bill for over £4000 and bailiffs had been to her house to list goods for removal. Action/Outcome: We helped her appeal her Employment Support Allowance and got it reinstated. We also helped her to apply for Personal Independence Payment. This meant she could now afford her rent and other living expenses. We also managed to have all of her debts written off. Disability Benefits - Client aged 75, had ill health and lived alone in a rented house. He was struggling financially; with debts owed to his landlord, his bank and HMRC. His rent arrears were also putting his tenancy at risk. He was paying out so much money to try and clear these debts that he couldn’t afford food. Action/Outcome: We re-negotiated the amounts he was paying towards his debts to make them more affordable for him. We helped him to claim Attendance Allowance which gave him more money and allowed him to pay for his daily needs. This also gave him access to other benefits such as a mobility scooter to give him more independ-ence. Benefits - A couple needed help with an ESA appeal, they also revealed their worry that one partner had been directed to attend a work programme, which would mean he would have to leave his ill partner home alone. They received ESA basic allowance while awaiting appeal hearing and one of them received Disability Living Allowance. Action/Outcome: Advised that client should apply for Carers Premium to exempt him from work programme and this has in-creased their weekly income with the premi-um backdated for 3 months. They continue
to wait for their ESA appeal hearing but cli-ent is now able to provide his partner with the care and support she needs. Housing - Man, aged 56 was released from prison with £46, nowhere to live and no fam-ily connections, following 36 years in prison, the latter term was 15 years. He was unable to sign on for Job Seekers Allowance, as he had nowhere to live. Action/Outcome: CAB liaised with the prison and SHBC, who provided him with emergen-cy accommodation, which allowed him to sign on, locally. Client had said he would commit a crime to return to prison if he couldn’t get housed, he was so distressed. Here is some feedback we received from one of our clients: ‘Please accept this heart-felt thank-you……you were sensitive to my problem and followed up my interview with a full explanation by letter, the next day……a first class service from a first class organiza-tion from people, who care. Bless you all it is appreciated more than words can express.’
A big thank you! To our 66 volunteers and to all of our donors
including Frimley Fuel Allotments, Our Lady
Queen of Heaven church, the local solicitors
who attend our pro bono rota, the local
councils, and to all of the other individuals
and organisations who have shown their
gratitude and generosity by supporting our
service.

Sleep – the key to a long and healthy life
Regular quality sleep is a key ingredient for a long and healthy life. Research shows that the benefits of a good nights sleep are numerous and can be just as
important as exercise and healthy eating. Yet millions of us are either cutting short on the amount of sleep that we take or suffer from a sleep problem.
Why do we sleep? Although this may sound like an obvious question, scientists do not actually agree
on the reason. Theories suggested include bodily restoration, energy conservation and adaptation to physical conditions such as weather, seasons and environment.
What is clear is that sleep is essential to life. Tests have shown that laboratory ani-mals that are constantly deprived of sleep die. A survey conducted by the Ameri-
can Cancer Society concluded that people who sleep 6 hours or less per night, or
who sleep 9 hours or more, had a death rate30 percent higher than those who regularly slept 7 to 8 hours. Even those who slept 6 hours or less who otherwise
had no health problems had death rates 1.8 times higher than those who slept ‘normal’ hours.
Better quality sleep It only takes a few simple life style changes to improve our quality of sleep and
therefore our quality of health. The most important rule is to take 8 hours uninter-rupted sleep every night. Try to get into a routine of going to bed and getting up
at consistent times each day. Don’t drink caffeinated beverages and alcohol in the
evening. Taking a warm bath before bedtime is a great way to relax the body, the breathing and the mind.
Exercise and sleep Exercise plays a major role in ensuring both continuous and quality sleep. Simply
taking moderate exercise lasting 20 to 30 minutes for three to four times per week will help you to sleep better and give you increased levels of energy. Exercise im-
proves sleep because it is a physical stressor to the body. The brain compensates for physical stress by increasing deep sleep. Therefore, we sleep more deeply and
soundly after exercise.
