Department for Work and Pensions
Web: www.dwp.gov.uk
The Department for Work and Pensions help people to achieve their potential through employment. They are promoting work as the best form of welfare, helping more people into work and supporting those who can't work.
Another key target for the DWP is to help people plan for retirement and, when in retirement, to access their entitlement.
They are also working to improve rights and opportunities for disabled people. The Office for Disability Issues is the focal point within government to coordinate disability policy across all departments.
