Volunteering ACT
🔙 This #ThrowbackThursday, we are taking a trip down memory lane and sharing some photos of the ACT Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB). 📸Founded in 1978, the ACT Citizens Advice Bureau supported the Canberra community as a referral service provider. In 2014, it was rebranded to the Community Info Hub. While the referral service continues to be the core operation of the hub, there are other services available as well for the community, such as: 👴👵 Free digital/computer skills sessions for Australians aged 50+ 💰 Free tax help (July – October)📚Free information guides on free meals, short stay accommodation, op-shops, legal aid and much more💻 Free telephone and computer accessDid you ever visit the ACT Citizens Advice Bureau? Share your stories and memories with us in the comments!
