Debt advice worker/ experience

Posts: 351 Forumite
Dear all
I'm hoping some-one might be able to help. I would like to do some work voluntarily giving debt advice. Non of the Citizens Advice Bureau's near me are open during the evening. I work full time so I would have to do this in my spare time.
Ideally I would like to get some training but can't find anything on the internet. I live near Leeds/ Wakefield.
Does anyone know any organisations I could approach? Ideally I would love to do this as a full time job, but I need to get experience behind me first.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Sorry that I can't be of much use but wanted to wish you well. I dont know of any evening CABs.There is a lady on the OS board that works for the CAB as a debt advisor.I will PM you her name, unfortunatly my PM's are playing up and need to be sorting so it may be a day or so before you hear from me.Good luck though.Blind as you run...aware you were staring at the sun.
And when no hope was left inside on that starry starry night.

CCCS are based in Leeds.
They have info on working for them and training as debt councillor in the following links:
BECOMING A DEBT COUNSELLOR, WORKING FOR CCCS, CURRENT VACANCIES, TRAINING.
As far as I can see full training is given for a lot of posts.Free/impartial debt advice: National Debtline | StepChange Debt Charity | Find your local CAB
