The Caithness Citizens Advice Bureau is a leading advocate for social change in Scotland, using client evidence to demonstrate the need for change in parliament. Independent research has shown that the provision of CAB advice services helps to improve people's health and well-being, increase their ability to remain independent for longer, improve their confidence and well-being, and raise living standards. Volunteering for CAB also improves people's chances of moving into further education or employment, giving them transferable skills for use in the community and at work. The bureau's Wick office is located at 123 High Street, KW1 4LR, and is open Tuesday to Thursday from 10:00am to 2:00pm. The main principles of Citizens Advice Bureau include providing a free service, acting with impartiality, treating each meeting with confidentiality, and giving independent advice. The bureau is also committed to accessibility, effectiveness, community accountability, the client's right to decide, a voluntary service, empowerment, information retrieval, and a generalist service. Citizens Advice offers free help with debt, benefits, employment, consumer issues, and crofting.
