Citizens Advice Bureau
| The Hastings Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) is a voluntary organisation providing FREE, confidential information and advice to anyone about any query or problem. CAB is staffed by trained volunteers, who ensure that you do not suffer through ignorance of your rights and responsibilities. We make sure that we make an influence on the development of social policies and services, both locally and nationally. |

Contact us
CAB is your first port of call.
CAB can provide information about almost anything, and if
we can't, we will find someone who can - no problem is too
big or small.
Whether you are about to be thrown out of your flat, need to find local childcare, or want advice on how to deal with a neighbour, a trained CAB volunteer can help you. They will discuss your options with you and give you contact numbers for any services or organisations that will be able to help you further.
