GROW is a range of 1-2-1 support, online courses, and trainer-led learning from Citizens Advice Halton, to help people grow their confidence, skills, and more – to help them get ready for new opportunities like training, volunteering, and work.

Get Involved - Volunteering is Hugely Rewarding

Our volunteers benefit from their experience of working with us. Retired volunteers believe it keeps them mentally active and nine in ten unemployed volunteers say it helps them move into employment or education.

I volunteered at Citizens Advice Halton for 3 months and was provided with training and gained new skills. I am now working full-time thanks to the volunteering I did at Citizens Adivce Halton.
