At Angus CAB, our general advice service is mainly volunteer-led.

Every day, our dedicated volunteers give their time, energy, and expertise to support their fellow Angus residents — often going above and beyond to make sure no one faces their challenges alone.

Volunteering is at the heart of what we do. It allows us to provide vital advice and support to those who need it most, while creating a welcoming, compassionate environment for everyone who walks through our doors. But just as our volunteers are always there for others, it’s important that we’re there for them too.

That’s why our advice service is closed today.

This short break is an opportunity to give our volunteers some well-deserved time back.

We know how much you rely on our service, and decisions like this are never taken lightly. However, supporting the well-being of our volunteers ensures that we can continue to offer a high-quality, sustainable service all year round.

We’ll be back open tomorrow, 7th April at 10am, refreshed and ready to help

💙💛February was another busy month here at Angus CAB 💛💙

Demand for our service continues to be high, and we are grateful to everyone who has shown patience whilst we work through the large number of enquiries we are getting to ensure you receive the advice and assistance that you need.

This work would not be possible without the incredible dedication of our volunteers, who generously gave 375 hours of their time last month. Most of the advice/assistance we provide is delivered by trained volunteers, supported by our specialist staff to make sure you receive accurate, high-quality guidance.

Together, this support helped unlock £71,456.29 in financial gains for people in our community.

A huge thank you to our volunteers, staff, and the public for your continued support and understanding as we work to meet the growing demand for advice services.

In Scotland, almost 165,000 people don’t have access to a bank accounts. That makes basic everyday tasks almost impossible. Without a bank account, wages have nowhere to be sent or payments for any benefits to be received. Everyday bills are also more expensive and accessing affordable credit is blocked because banks and lenders rely on payments going in and out of an agreed account.

The ultimate form of financial exclusion is not having access to a bank account. And unfortunately, some people are impacted more than others.

If you are struggling with financial exclusion and getting access to a bank account, get in touch with us for support with opening a Basic Bank Account.
