Welcome to Citizens Advice Oxfordshire
The Citizens Advice service aims: -
- To provide the advice people need for the problems they face
- To improve the policies and practices that affect people’s lives
The service provides free, independent, confidential and impartial advice to everyone on their rights and responsibilities. It values diversity, promotes equality and challenges discrimination.
Financial Capability Project
The Financial Capability Project aims to provide a basic financial education for members of the community.
The training is delivered by volunteers to both large groups and on a 1:1 basis and ranges from assisting people to make better budgeting decisions, increasing their awareness of the best ways to borrow and save money and how to choose the type of bank account best for their particular needs.
Why volunteer for us?
All sorts of people volunteer for many different reasons, but one thing that unites them all is that they find it challenging, rewarding and varied. Volunteering provides an opportunity to learn new skills and to develop existing ones.
In any role, you will develop your skills in a number of valuable areas, like communication, IT and dealing with the public, as well as increasing your self-confidence through practical hands-on experience. In addition, CAB adviser training is respected and valued throughout the advice sector.
