We are currently organising our next Volunteer Interviewer Training and are looking for people who are interested in supporting others with accessing information, to ensure that they are aware of their rights and are better equipped to deal with their everyday life and challenges.
Citizens Advice Bureau will train you in the basics and provide ongoing training and support. Initial training involves 6 half day sessions, then being paired with a mentor to ensure you are supported along the journey to becoming an accredited bureau interviewer.
We are looking for long term volunteers who can commit to one or two, 3 hour shifts each week, between 9.30-3.30 weekdays.
We have a great team of volunteers with a wide range of skills and experience. Are you able to add your skills to our Bureau?
We would be very interested in speaking with you!

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
Do you think this ban is reasonable?
