At Moray Citizens Advice Bureau we want people to know that ‘Our Advice Adds Up’ as the cost of living crisis squeezes household budgets.
This can be a really scary time for people. Energy bills are soaring, prices in the shops are rising and interest rates have gone up.
That’s why the Citizens Advice network is running “Our Advice Adds Up” campaign to encourage people to seek advice if they are worried about the cost of living.
We get real results for people. In fact, Moray CAB helped 2005 people last year, unlocking £1,554,666.30 through things like social security payments and employment entitlements.
We are providing help in a variety of ways:
- https://www.cas.org.uk/our-advice-adds-up is the campaign page
- moneymap.scot is an online tool that rounds up options for cutting costs or boosting incomes
- checkmycounciltax.scot helps someone check if they are entitled to a Council Tax Reduction
- The Citizens Advice public advice site, includes information on budgeting, what to do if you’re struggling to pay your bills and on dealing with debt: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/scotland/debt-and-money/
- And of course, MORAY CAB provides free, confidential and impartial advice at 6 Moss Street, Elgin, IV301LU in person and via telephone 01343 550088. Visit moraycab.org.uk
Across all of Scotland last year the Citizens Advice network helped 171,000 people, with a further 2.5 million checking our advice online. We can deliver life-changing results, we want to help more and more people.
