Objectives

Citizens Advice Stockport offers free, confidential, independent, and impartial advice and information to the residents of Stockport District. Advice and information is available through a number of different channels across Stockport. Working across Stockport District, the local Citizens Advice aims to provide the advice people need for the problems they have and to improve the policies and practices that affect people’s lives.

The Citizens Advice service (formed in 1939) values diversity, promotes equality and challenges discrimination.

We can help with housing and employment issues or deal with queries about consumer or tax problems. We can advise on legal matters, answer questions about immigration and we have lots of experience on family and personal matters too.

We are uniquely placed to support our clients with any problem they face. Citizens Advice Stockport is an independent, not-for-profit charity, supported by a range of different organisation, volunteers and paid staff without whom we would not be able to offer the quality service we do.

As one of 316 members of the Citizens Advice network, we have access to an extensive information system which allows us to advise clients but also ensure the quality of our advice and training is the best available.
