Volunteer at CAB
If you would like to awhi (show support to) your community, Citizens Advice Bureau could be a great place for you to volunteer. CAB volunteers deliver our service of information, advice and support to individuals and whānau, helping them to find a way forward with the questions and issues for which they seek our help. As a CAB volunteer, you will have the chance to make a difference in people’s lives through your mahi aroha (voluntary work).
Working with us, you would get to be part of an organisation that not only empowers individuals and whānau, but that also empowers communities by advocating for fairer laws and policies based on what we learn from our clients.
So, if you love helping people and your wider community, volunteering with the CAB could be the place for you. As a CAB volunteer, you will receive great training, gain valuable learning and experience through helping clients, and get to work alongside our wonderful group of dedicated volunteers, making a positive impact together.
Hono mai! Come and be a part of the CAB where the community comes together in the spirit of awhi mai, awhi atu – the receiving and giving of support – and being empowered together.

One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?

14.3% ... It is complicated
