We are sorry to report that we are having to close due to problems with funding. 3rd Dec 2024 Harlow Advice Centre are very pleased to announce that, thanks to support from players of People’s Postcode Lottery, we have been awarded funding of £25,000 by Postcode Places Trust to support the work we do. This is a very welcome boost to our funding, which enables us to provide specialist legal advice and representation in fields of Benefits, Debt and Housing.
Thu 28th Dec 2023 THE
Harlow Advice Centre (registered as Harlow & West Essex Law Centre)
has been awarded the highest possible grant of funding, £75,000, as
part of the Government’s Community
Organisation Cost of Living Fund (CCLF). The CCLF is rewarding grants
from £10,000 to £75,000 to maintain and expand support for people and
communities by distributing grants to critical frontline services. This
is part of the £76 million fund announced by
the Chancellor in the Spring Budget, which makes up some of the further
£101.5 million package created to support charities and community
organisations across England.
The Harlow Advice Centre
is a vital frontline service that offers provision of legal advice,
information, advocacy and representation on social welfare law and
related matters to Harlow residents. An incredible
charity that has helped thousands with free, confidential and
independent advice.
Speaking to Your Harlow, MP for Harlow, Robert Halfon said: “I
am delighted that the Government has awarded the Harlow Advice Centre
£75,000, the highest possible grant, as part of the Community
Organisation Cost of Living Fund announced by the Chancellor in the
Spring Budget.
The Harlow Advice
Centre is an amazing charity that offers a vital frontline service,
providing free legal advice, information, advocacy and representation to
thousands of Harlow residents. I would like to
say a massive thank you to all their employees who help so many and I
am glad that the Government has recognised their indispensable
work.”
