Kirklees Bureaux Merge

At the end of January 2009, the Citizens Advice bureaux in Kirklees came together to form Kirklees Citizens Advice.

At the present time, we are operating from a number of premises including Huddersfield, Dewsbury, Cleckheaton, and Batley. In addition we have various outreach services.

Our commitment is that by coming together, we will be able to offer our independent and impartial advice and help to more residents across the whole of Kirklees.

If you have any queries about our services and our plans for the future,  please contact us.

 
How to Volunteer

A young volunteerKirklees Citizens Advice Bureaux value volunteers very highly. The majority of our staff are volunteers, and without them we could not provide our service to the public.

Voluntary work for a CAB can include:

- helping with office administration

- becoming a qualified CAB adviser, giving advice to the public

- becoming a trustee on a CAB management committee

Our volunteers come from a wide range of backgrounds and range in age from 18-80+ Some volunteers join us becuase they want to do something useful and stimulating, but who are not looking for paid work. Other volunteers join us because they see the training we provide as helping them to obtain paid employment in advice or a related sector. We are strongly committed to providing paid work opportunities for those volunteers who want to develop their careers within Citizens Advice. 

All volunteers are able to claim expenses.
