Advice Service

Do you need help with benefits, debt, council tax or utility bills?

We partner with Coventry Independent Advice Service to offer additional support to everyone who gets a food parcel from us. We have two dedicated caseworkers who work tirelessly to help and support you with benefit and debt issues. 

This project is able to run because of the support of Stratford Town Trust and Trussell.
