The twin aims of the Citizen Advice Bureau is to improve the policies and practices that affect peoples lives.

The experience of CAB gives it a unique and fresh insight into the problems faced by people living in the UK today.

Citizens Advice collects evidence from CAB clients problems and uses this to campaign for changes in national, regional and local policies and services. We have a key role in speaking up for clients, raising issues brought to the buraeu, contributing to the public debate and informing legislation. As well as giving a voice to our clients, our policy work ensures new policies are based on evidence rather than assumptions, benefitting many more people than we could ever advise one-to-one.

Our policy/campaign work covers a huge range of issues. We work with policy makers, regulators, MP's, local authorities, assembly members and service providers.

Stay informed about our policy work by signing up to 'recieve and e-mail alert' when a new evidence report, consultation response or parliamentary briefing is published.
