We’ve seen a 60% increase in digitally excluded people coming to Scottish CABs on the last 2 years. Governments and others need to make all services accessible by phone, in writing or in person as well as online. Here's @KyleeeScott talking to STV on this issue.

We stand in solidarity with colleagues in @SunderlandCAB. Local CABs provide the help & hope local communities desperately need, making this such a devastating loss. But we also know the strength & resilience that exists in CABs that will help the team to come back from this.

Last night Citizens Advice Sunderland's office was badly damaged following riots in the city. We're working with the team in Sunderland to provide support to them and help them be there for the people who need advice going forward. Our services are closed on weekends (1/2)

Citizens Advice Scotland strongly opposes the reintroduction of fees in the Employment Tribunal system – they will make it even harder for workers to access justice and protect their rights against exploitation or other unlawful practices by employers.

We welcome this new broadband Social Tariff that will help eligible customers afford broadband. CAS has long advocated that Social Tariffs are essential in ensuring consumers have access to affordable internet connections and we expect other providers to take note and follow suit
Ofcom@Ofcom

We’ve called on telecoms companies to do more to raise awareness and take-up of social tariffs, so we’re pleased Vodafone has today launched a new, faster broadband package for eligible customers. Find out more on which packages are available at: ofcom.org.uk/phones-telecom…

I spent a day visiting @ParkheadCAB in October last year and the queue for advice was down the street by 10am. Everyday, I see the lengths that advisors go through to help their clients. If Glasgow were to lose any of the CABs then it would be a disaster for the communities.
Citizens Advice Scotland@CitAdviceScot

📺 @ParkheadCAB CEO Liz Willis spoke to @BBCScotNine about the impact of proposed funding cuts that would close 5 of the 8 CABs in Glasgow. With the furlough scheme set to wind down and the economy looking uncertain,people need their local CAB more than ever. #SaveOurCABs

We've welcomed today's announcement by @NicolaSturgeon that @scotgov intends to extend emergency housing powers to help prevent eviction as a result of rent arrears occurring due to COVID-19. We hope MSPs will support the extension when it is brought to @ScotParl. #FMQs
