The Citizens Advice service helps people resolve their legal, money and other problems by providing free information and advice, and by influencing policy makers.
Our principles:
The Citizens Advice service provides free, independent, confidential and impartial advice to everyone on their rights and responsibilities. It values diversity, promotes equality and challenges discrimination.
Our aims:
* To provide the advice people need for the problems they face
* To improve the policies and practices that affect people’s lives
Our funding:
Citizens Advice Hammersmith & Fulham receives its core funding from the Council’s 3rd Sector Investment Fund to deliver advice services in H&F under the service area of Economic Wellbeing & Opportunity.
We are funded by Hammersmith & Fulham Council for 3 of our main contracts:
* Advice+ that delivers our generalist advice service.
* ROOF+ that helps prevent people from becoming homeless.
* More than a Library delivers our award winning volunteer-led library.
Citizens Advice Hammersmith & Fulham is grateful to the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham for its continued funding of Citizens Advice services since its inception in 1939. Not only does this guarantee the provision of key services to the local community, it provides us with a foundation and infrastructure from which we can leverage additional funds into the Borough and increase the range of services available to local residents
CAHF is also funded by a variety of other funders to provide a range of complimentary projects.
