Welcome to Edinburgh’s CAB

Citizens Advice Edinburgh (CAE) runs 5 advice centres and 17 outreach projects across the capital. Our 200 trained volunteers and project staff provide free, confidential, impartial and independent advice on issues including money advice, benefits, immigration, employment rights, housing, consumer issues, family problems and health services.

We are an independent charity and a one-stop shop for advice and information.

Our clients have one common bond – they are citizens of Edinburgh and our aim is that none of them should suffer through ignorance of their rights and obligations as members of our community.

Can We Help You?

We provide advice, information and practical assistance. All advice is:

  • Free
  • Confidential
  • Impartial
  • Independent
To find your nearest Edinburgh office see where we are or use our bureau finder.

There are lots of ways to help. Citizens Advice Edinburgh is a voluntary organisation and we need volunteers to work with us in a range of roles. We offer comprehensive training and an opportunity to help the community.
