In Person
We offer a range of in-person advice services across Somerset:
Community Access Points – see below for details of where and when you can visit us to speak to an adviser in person at our access point sessions. You can just turn up – no need to book – and our advice team will do a quick initial assessment with you to understand how best to help you.
Pre-booked appointments – appointments are offered when your advice query requires additional time or if you need more specialist assistance. Please get in touch so we can see how we can help you – you can phone or email us, or come to see us at a community access point session.
You can use the map below to explore your area and services local to you – use the + and – signs in the bottom left of the map below to zoom in and out of locations.
