Thinking of volunteering?

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

Then why not come and join us at Citizens Advice Bureau at our Hornby branch (based at the Hornby Community Centre).

Volunteering is an amazing way to give back to the community but also to give you, as a volunteer, a great sense of achievement. We only ask for about half a day a week.

We have training starting soon and then you will be assigned a Mentor, who will help you through those first weeks.

If you think this might be you and you want more information then email manager.cabchch@gmail.com, who can also arrange an observation session if you want to sit in with us to see what we do.

Do you have a quick question for a lawyer?

The Team from Citizens Advice Christchurch Area

On Thursday each week we hold free lawyer clinics.

These clinics allow you to see a lawyer at no cost for 10 mins. So, if you need help understanding a legal document or deciding whether to pursue a legal case, then this is a great starting point.

- 1pm - 133 Brighton Mall (entrance on Union Street, SBA office) – 03 366 6490
- 6.15pm - 8 Goulding Ave (Hornby community centre) – 03 349 5236

You will be given a number when you arrive, so everyone is seen in order and usually the lawyer can see 5-7 clients.

If you need a specialist lawyer or advisor for immigration, employment or ACC then email christchurchclinics@outlook.com to make an appointment with the separate clinics.
