Welcome to Citizens Advice
East Dorset and Purbeck
Citizens Advice in East Dorset and Purbeck is an independent charity that provides free, confidential and impartial advice and support. Our goal is to help everyone find a way forward, whatever their problem.
We have offices in Wareham and Wimborne and have outreach centres across East Dorset and Purbeck and are part of the Citizens Advice network in Dorset and across England and Wales.
We are working in partnership with Dorset Community Foundation on their Surviving Winter Appeal. We will help issue grants to the vulnerable and elderly who are in or at risk of fuel poverty. Find out how to access help by following the link above.
