Ahead of the budget on July 8, child tax credits and working tax credits look likely to be targeted by the government as part of its mission to cut the welfare bill. We’d like to hear from anyone currently receiving either what the likely effect any cuts would have on their finances.

We are particularly interested in hearing from anyone in the constituency of Blackburn with Darwen, though we do want to hear from you if you live elsewhere in the UK. Share your experiences and we’ll hopefully use your most interesting responses in our reporting
