Paperweight provides transformative and life-changing advice.  Known as the Jewish Community’s Dedicated Advice Centre, Paperweight offers vital, free support to people navigating some of life’s toughest challenges. From responding to official letters to guiding clients through the complex bureaucracy of modern life, we stand beside those who feel lost in the system.

Whether easing the pain of bereavement or family breakdown, helping people escape poverty and regain financial stability, or protecting vulnerable families, Paperweight acts with compassion and determination. We champion access to justice, give a voice to the voiceless, and, through our Eldercare Unit, ensure dignity and respect in later life.

As one client said “The altruistic help provided by Paperweight, cannot be overestimated.  It literally gave me back my dignity and my life !”
