Tabernacle has hosted Citizens Advice sessions for a number of years with the face-to-face sessions coinciding with our fortnightly Coffee Mornings. In line with many other organisations responding to the Coronavirus crisis, Citizens Advice in Gwent has closed all of its face-to- face services and its staff have switched to home working.

A new phone service, Adviceline Gwent, is now available weekdays (9am to 5pm) on 0300 330 2117. In addition, people can also contact the Adviceline Wales service on 0344 477 2020. This service operates until 6 pm on weekdays.

Other Citizens Advice helplines available are:
Help to Claim Line 0800 0241 220 (for new Universal Credit claimants)
Consumer Service Helpline 0808 223 1133 (for consumer and energy issues)
Pension Wise 0800 138 3944 (for people seeking pension guidance)
Advice on the full range of subjects as well as Coronavirus specific advice is available 24/7 from
