Wellsford CAB extends hours

Wellsford Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) this month extended its opening hours to include Saturdays from 10am to noon.   

CAB manager Callum Leifting says the service has proven invaluable during the Covid-19 crisis, helping people navigate new rules and regulations.

In particular, it has worked with people to help them understand their rights and responsibilities regarding Government wage subsidies and unforeseeable circumstances clauses in employment contracts.

In addition, CAB provides a range of advice on a wide variety of problems from tenancy issues and to employment, to filling out forms. If CAB cannot help with a question, it will recommend an organisation that can.     

CAB is also eager to hear from potential volunteers willing to help people with advice.

CAB is located at the Wellsford Community Centre and is open from 10am-2pm, Monday to Friday and 10am to noon on Saturday.
