Money First Aid is a partnership of well-known local non-profit organisations helping local people who are struggling with their finances to regain control.

Once a client has been signed up for the service, a Volunteer Mentor will work with them to understand their main worries or anxieties and support them to prepare for their meeting with a qualified Money Adviser from Citizens Advice.  The Adviser will work with the client and the Volunteer Mentor to develop suitable debt options.

Once the debt option has been chosen, the Volunteer Mentor will support and enable the client to work through this option towards a debt-free future.

We know it can take a great deal of courage to ask for help but we encourage you to reach out to us, we are here to provide non-judgemental support to enable you to regain control of your debt.

You can either:

• complete our self-referral form and send it to mfa@doverdealcitizensadvice.org.uk
• call Citizens Advice on 01304 353861

• Do you possess empathy and understanding?
• Can you encourage and motivate another person in a non-judgemental manner through a process of significant life change?
• Do you have strong organisational skills that you can help another person develop, who may be feeling overwhelmed?

If the answer to these questions is ‘yes’, then you have all the qualities to become a great Volunteer Mentor. All you need is a little training, which we can provide.

For further information and an application form, please call 01303 850733 or email volunteering@rainbow-centre.org today.
