|June 03, 2025
An award-winning collaboration between Citizens Advice and Yorkshire Building Society has provided assistance to over 11,900 individuals across the UK over the past four years, including more than 410 from Preston. This initiative has potentially unlocked more than £6.5 million in additional income for those benefiting from the advice.
In Preston, this partnership allows Yorkshire Building Society to host a Citizens Advice adviser at the branch, on Fishergate, two days a week. Citizens Advice offers free, impartial advice on a wide range of issues, including financial struggles, to anyone who needs it. Through this collaboration, the public can book free, confidential, hour-long appointments directly at participating branches.
