Discover Your Rights
Awareness Week 8th – 14th April
Citizens Advice Invites you – to Discover Your Rights.
Helping people to know what their rights and responsibilities are and how they can act on these is the core to what the Citizens Advice is about!
“We help people from all walks of life to access the information they need so they are empowered to take the next steps and to resolve their problems”
A highlight of Awareness week is the launch of the new web site. The information about rights is grounded in the law but is practical and is expressed in a way that’s easy to understand. Please try it at our website www.cab.org.nz... or just search for Citizen's Advice Bureau.
Our volunteers have been busy upskilling in the use of this excellent resource.
We are also pleased to welcome a group of new volunteers, who are currently in training and we look forward to them being part of our TEAM.
