Thanks to all of you who made it to our VCS Assembly held late November 2024. We all had a great opportunity to learn more about advice provision in the borough and to share how we can work better together to support residents in need of advice and wider support.
We heard from the partners of the Kensington and Chelsea Advice Partnership as they launched their newly commissioned service, i.e. Citizens Advice Kensington and Chelsea, Nucleus Advice Centre and North Kensington Law Centre. It was good to hear how they endeavour to work together over the coming years to strengthen advice provision as a partnership. Thank you also to the CEO of the Council – Maxine Holdsworth who popped into the Assembly event to wish the Advice Partnership well. Finally thanks to all the workshop facilitators where participants were able to explore pertinent topics in more depth.
You can read more about the workshops and actions that came out of the discussions here.
We will continue to keep you updated on the work of the Advice Partnership over time through ebulletin updates and events.
KCSC is planning our next assembly meeting for late March, details will follow in due course.
