Community Resilience Project

How it works

Our volunteers can help you to check your benefit entitlement. Citizens Advice Plymouth are working in partnership with the Plymouth City Council Community Builders to reach clients in the community and provide this service.

The Community Resilience Project at Citizens Advice Plymouth is a project that delivers information, signposting and advice to clients about benefits, income maximisation and debt.

This includes:

  • Checking benefit entitlement
  • Income maximisation 
  • Budgeting advice
  • Debt advice and potential debt options

The service is available over the phone, face to face in our city centre office, and at outreach locations within the community. Clients are encouraged to access this service in the way that is most suitable for them and their needs.

We are an accessible service and are able to provide translation & BSL interpretation services.
