Westminster Advice Grants
Find out about how to apply for a Westminster Advice Grant.
For the last two years, we have been committed to providing additional capacity for residents to access qualified advice services due to the impact of the Cost-of-Living price rises. This is in addition to the main advice contract with the Westminster Advice Service Partnership, which is made up of Citizens Advice Westminster, Age UK, Asylum Aid, and Deaf Plus.
The intention is to continue with the additional grant-funded advice capacity for three more years, from April 2025 to March 2028.
In particular, we are looking for services in the following three areas:
- same language advice workers for Somali, Bengali and Arabic speaking communities
- apprenticeships or traineeships in advice work, supporting residents into employment and increasing the supply of trained and qualified advice workers from the local community
- triage and extended casework
For more information, please refer to the documents below.
