Natalie Anna from Citizens Advice Bureau Porirua

Are you
 open-minded

We are currently organising our next Volunteer Interviewer Training and are looking for people who are interested in supporting others with accessing information, to ensure that they are aware of their rights and are better equipped to deal with their everyday life and challenges.

Citizens Advice Bureau will train you in the basics and provide ongoing training and support. Initial training involves 6 half day sessions, then being paired with a mentor to ensure you are supported along the journey to becoming an accredited bureau interviewer.
We are looking for long term volunteers who can commit to one or two, 3 hour shifts each week, between 9.30-3.30 weekdays.

We have a great team of volunteers with a wide range of skills and experience. Are you able to add your skills to our Bureau?
We would be very interested in speaking with you!

If you are interested please contact Porirua Citizens Advice Bureau on 04 237 8846 or email manager.porirua@cab.org.nz

You can find us on the 2nd floor, Pember House
16 Hagley Street, Porirua
We are open 9.30am - 3.30pm Monday - Friday
