The EEIBA is the only charity that exists to help those in hardship and distress who work or have worked in the Electrical and Electronics Industry.

The EEIBA offers help and assistance to all age groups, from the youngest child to the oldest pensioner, anywhere in the United Kingdom and Northern Ireland.

Our support is also extended to dependants.

EEIBA's welfare care programmes centre around these broad groups of need:

• Sourcing benefits and allowances
