Becoming a CAB Volunteer


Citizens Advice Bureau

The work of South Derbyshire CAB would not be possible without our volunteers. Nationally, ninety per cent of CAB workers are volunteers. We have a particular need for more volunteer Advisers, but there are many ways to get involved; you could help streamline the office admin systems, or sit on the management committee and help with fundraising, publicity or our social policy work.

The Citizens Advice service helps people solve their legal, consumer and other problems by providing free advice, and by influencing policymakers.

Every Citizens Advice Bureau is a registered charity and more than 20,000 of the people involved in the service are trained volunteers, helping people to resolve nearly 5.5 million new problems a year.

Citizens Advice Bureau

PRESS RELEASE

Swadlincote Advice Charity Thanks Volunteers

South Derbyshire Citizens Advice Bureau would like to take this opportunity during Volunteers Week to publicly thank volunteers who work at their Swadlincote Grove Street Office without whom it would be impossible to provide a vital free of charge service to the residents of South Derbyshire.

The positions held by our volunteers vary from advisers, fund raisers, administrators and IT technicians. The CAB are always looking for more volunteers as the demand for the service they provide is ever increasing.

Graeme Royall, the Bureau Manager, told us, "We were delighted when 5 new volunteers joined the team at Swadlincote, following an appeal for help during January of this year. All of them are now undergoing training to become advisers." He adds, "If you are interested in joining the CAB team at Swadlincote, call in to see us between 1:30 and 4:30 on Thursday 7 June to find out more about working with the CAB."
