Text: We would like to add records held by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), containing information they hold on your benefit claims and time on employment programmes, to the responses you have given to this study.

 Linking the information will give researchers a fuller picture about who does and who does not claim pensions or benefits, or seek help from the DWP. This will tell us whether there are people who should be getting support but are missing out, and how much of a difference pensions and benefits make for people nowadays.
