we are committed to servicing the Medway area by not only helping members of our community navigate all of life’s uncertainties but also by standing by them as they
overcome each obstacle.
We’re a registered charity that offers free, independent, confidential, and impartial advice 24/7 for whatever you’re struggling to handle. Whether that is housing, welfare benefits, employment, debt, family law, or something else –
we’ve got you covered.
