<p>The pilot during which we will move legacy claimants without a change in circumstance
to Universal Credit will start in Harrogate, where we will initially test an approach
that is based on using existing relationships that DWP or partners have with claimants.
Through these relationships we will establish whether someone is ready to move and
how to prepare them. As we become confident that this approach works, we will consider
how we can expand this ‘who knows me’ approach through trusted stakeholders, who may
include Local Authority Welfare Officers. This approach differs from the ‘Trusted
Partner’ status that some Landlords hold to support Universal Credit claimants with
their rent verification.</p>
