About Rother District Citizens Advice Bureau

At Rother District Citizens Advice Bureau we can give you free, confidential, impartial and independent advice and information on a wide range of subjects.

We can work with you to sort out any debt worries and claim all the benefits you may be entitled to. We can help with housing and employment problems, or deal with queries about consumer or tax issues. We can advise on legal matters, answer questions about immigration, and we have lots of experience on family and personal matters too. Specialist money advice is also available.

CAB advice and information can also be found on the CAB AdviceGuide website.

We are a charity, dependent on a workforce of paid staff and trained volunteers. Our funding comes from Rother District Council, other organisations like the Big Lottery Fund, and through the local fundraising efforts of the Friends of Rother District CAB.

We speak up for change in social policies; from our clients' experiences we can see where services and policies are failing. We call this work "Campaigning for Change".

We are a member of the national Citizens Advice service, which provides the extensive information system we use to advise clients and sets standards for advice, training, equal opportunities and accessibility in the bureau.

Our Aims and Principles

The Citizens Advice service aims

to ensure that individuals do not suffer through lack of knowledge of the rights and responsibilities or of the services available to them, or through an inability to express their needs effectively

and equally

to exercise a responsible influence on the development of social policies and services, both locally and nationally.

We are an independent service providing free, confidential and impartial advice to everybody regardless of race, sex, disability or sexuality.
