They are able to offer advice via their Adviceline telephone service from Monday to Friday (10:00am to 4:00pm). 

They are also able to offer focused face-to-face advice services to those who cannot use our telephone services at locations in Spalding, Stamford and Grantham.

Become a Volunteer

Citizens Advice South Lincolnshire is totally dependent on volunteers providing the service.

Volunteers carry out a variety of roles, including assisting clients, administration work, reception, marketing, fundraising and Research and Campaigns.

They need new volunteers every year to help them meet the demand for service.

With so many different roles available everyone should be able to find a way to get involved.

Volunteers do not need to know it all, as they provide all trainees with a comprehensive training programme that will give them the skills they need to deliver a high quality service to the clients.

For further information on becoming a volunteer, follow this link to the Citizens Advice South Lincolnshire volunteers web page.
