Research & Campaigns
We use our clients’ experience, stories and evidence to research and campaign for positive change both locally and nationally.
Evidence
Our advisers have a unique insight into the problems faced everyday by the people of Winchester District. As well as giving advice, we also collect evidence of policies that we think are unfair and report these to our national campaigns team, who collate this evidence, and use it to influence decision makers and change unfair practices.
“As a local Citizens Advice we are uniquely positioned to see where policies and practices are failing. It is our responsibility to challenge and speak up for our clients and communities.”
