CITIZENS
ADVICE IN SAXMUNDHAM
The Citizens
Advice Bureau in Saxmundham has moved!
From the start
of January 2010, Leiston, Saxmundham & District CAB are running
the Saxmundham Outreach Session from the Meadow Children's Centre,
situated just next to the Middle School.
Nick Mayo,
Manager at the Bureau, said: ”We have moved from the Housing Action
offices in the High Street because they need the space. I hope that
we will be able to build up an equally good working relationship
with the Children's Centre. The premises there are more accessible
and the interview room provides better aural privacy. We hope that
parents using the Centre will take the opportunity to come and see
us there but we also hope that clients used to coming to the High
Street will come and find us.
We can offer
advice on all subjects – benefits, employment, housing and debt
are the biggest issues we deal with. People running into debt are
advised to come and see us sooner rather than later, as we can negotiate
with creditors and investigate whether there are any benefit entitlements
to help with the budget.”
Advice sessions
commenced in the Children's Centre on 6 January 2010. Sessions run
from 10 a.m. to 12 noon on Wednesdays.
The Leiston
Bureau is open at 14 Colonial House on Mondays and Fridays 10.00
a.m. to 1.30 p.m., and on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 10.00 a.m.
and 2.30 p.m. The telephone number for Leiston is 01728 832 193.
