Thank you to the CEO of Citizens Advice Hart for presenting to Odiham Parish Councillors last week. This voluntary led charity provides a valuable support service to Hart residents and this includes a local outreach programme.
We are pleased to award an annual grant of £1,500 to help with running costs.
We heard about the different projects aimed at supporting residents and the increase in different issues faced by their clients. One project offers training to community organisations to enable their staff and volunteers to also signpost residents to local support groups and services.
A major challenge faced by the charity is the recruitment of enough volunteers to run services. Volunteering can be very rewarding. If you are interested in finding out more then please contact [email protected]. Full training is provided.
