Welfare is the provision of a minimal level of well-being and social support for all citizens. Basic social security benefits are funded by taxes – generally a flat percentage of earnings - that are paid by both employee and employer. However, to supplement these benefits, there are other sources of welfare income, such as state benefits, child benefit, child tax credits, housing benefit, tax credits, and so on. Any British citizen who is unable to work due to a medical condition, or who is unemployed, may be eligible for welfare benefits. Donate your Qurbani online to Orphans
