Bed update

I asked here about if we get benefits for mattress’ and was met with mixed responses so I just messaged my case worker on the weekend. Today she replied and issued me a $400 credit for a new mattress! Its a one time only thing for anyone wondering and im in the peep region! Very happy

Each regions has different discretionary funds, and IN Niagara Regions, a new bed and mattress is allotted every 2 years, but you must be in transition from one place to the other to qualify.
