Research and Campaigns

Through our work helping people locally, we are able to gather information about the problems and challenges people face, which we can then use to work for change in the community.

As well as campaigning to make changes locally, we pass anonymised information to Citizens Advice for nationwide campaigns. For information on current national campaigns, visit: Our campaigns – Citizens Advice. 

We have had local campaigns focusing on:

• Problems with renting property in the private sector
• Access to local mental health services and support
• Access to basic bank accounts
• Cost of school uniforms
