Money Talk Team

The Money Talk Team is a service that offers  free, confidential money advice to low income families and older people.

It helps explain how to make the most of your income and make sure you're not paying more than you need to for services like gas, electricity and internet.

It can help you find out:

• what benefits you can get
• how to save money on your bills
• what other money you may be entitled to

You can speak to the Money Talk Team by calling 0800 085 7145, or by setting up a meeting at your local Citizens Advice Bureau.
