Volunteer for Citizens Advice Bureau Te Awamutu.

Want to make a difference to peoples’ lives? Volunteer for Citizens Advice Bureau Te Awamutu.
Our volunteers help people from all walks of life. You will find the work is interesting, stimulating and fun. We work with clients by listening carefully, thoroughly researching the options available to them and by explaining the information in a way that they can use it. We also help people access information and services online or make complaints when needed.
Volunteers are the life-blood of the CAB. Most give about 4 hours every week to answer phone calls or emails from our clients, or to help them face-to-face when they come into the CAB. On top of this ‘rostered duty’, every volunteer participates in ongoing learning and development to ensure their skills and knowledge remains current and contributes to running the CAB.
We provide all our volunteers with the training, tools and ongoing support necessary to provide our service.
Contact the CAB on 07 871 4111 or pop in and see us in the Ray White Arcade, 2/213 Alexandra Street, Te Awamutu for more information.

Could the jury service process be improved?
Every year, thousands of New Zealanders are called up to serve as jurors in the High and District Courts, and it's an important way to contribute to your country.
But for some, jury service can be a huge disruption and a financial burden. Do you think changes could be made to our jury service system to address these challenges?
What do you think of the regional council rate rise?
One frustrated councillor walked out of a meeting before regional councillors set rates, and another didn’t vote in “protest”.
Regional councillors have agreed by a thin 7 for and 5 against margin to put forward a 2024-34 long term plan for adoption, exposing particular divisions over the higher-than-suggested rates rise for next year: 7.4%.
