Fundraising for Citizens Advice South Worcestershire

Story

What my friend wants to say...

"Those who know me will be unsurprised to hear that I firmly believe knowledge is power. In particular, knowledge of individual rights and access to the Courts system enables the vulnerable to tackle many wrongs: unlawful evictions, discrimination at work, unlawful behaviour by loan sharks, to name but a few.

Citizens Advice South Worcestershire have over 100 trained volunteers who help empower vulnerable people by providing access to free, high quality, independent, confidential advice and assistance throughout the community. I feel very privileged to be a trustee and company secretary for this amazing local charity.

Thanks for supporting Citizens Advice South Worcestershire."

What I want to say...

"Having seen Emma run a 7 mile cross country course over the Malvern Hills I decided to start running myself despite hating it since I was a teenager. Raising money for a good cause is a good motivation to get out and train, especially given that I have been running in mud, rain, torrential rail, hail and snow in the last three weeks.

I may even be starting to enjoy it.

We provide free, independent, confidential and impartial advice throughout South Worcestershire. We aim to empower people to help themselves, make informed choices and resolve their problems. Our professionally trained advisors help with a wide range of issues. We can’t list all the subjects we deal with, but examples include: money and debt, benefits, employment, housing, family and relationships. Our service is free. We don’t tell and we don’t judge. We offer face to face support, with time for clients to explain things to us. Our support is practical too: we help clients to make phone calls, write letters, fill out forms, check benefits and support them to deal with unfairness or discrimination. We are an independent charity working as part of the Citizens Advice Network. We offer a free service because we believe cost should never be a barrier to help. Last year over 6000 people in South Worcestershire benefited from our advice and support. In order to keep our offices running, we need to raise £34 every hour (based on our average annual costs rounded to the nearest £). Fundraising for us If you are part of a group, school, company or other social network, please consider holding a fundraising event in support of our work. You’ll have fun while helping us to continue running this vital service on behalf of our local community.
