could I run a utilities swap drop-in?

Just spent the afternoon with a visually impaired friend after learning that she had never changed energy supplier and couldn't even tell me what she paid per month. I signed her up to the mse Cheap Energy Club, swapped supplier and saved £350 and am going back this weekend to help her apply for the Warm Home Discount. It got me wondering how many other people are in the same position. We've quite an active local community and I wondered whether I could get a group of people confident on the internet together and offer our services to talk people through the process, probably at the library, or whether this would be classed as financial advice and I'd need a licence, insurance etc. Has anyone any experience of this?
