Unfortunately, this means that our service at The Loft Eastgate Mall is also suspended. This is about putting the safety of our volunteers, employees, clients and communities first during the Covid-19 outbreak. So from Monday 23rd March you will not be able to come into the CAB. However you can still access the CAB service during the usual opening hours by phone and email. You can phone us free, including from a mobile, on 0800 367 222 or email us at christchurchwest@cab.org.nz .You can also call one of our 3 branches:
