Contact us
Our team in Canning Town offers a phone-in service every Monday morning between 10:00 AM and 10:30 AM. Call 020 3855 5233 (except public holidays).
Advice appointments
We cannot offer same-day appointments. One of our assessors will call you back to carry out an initial assessment, and may book you an appointment where we can help.
There is very high demand for our services. This causes delays in responding to call-backs. We apologise and are working hard to respond to as many callers as possible.
If you can’t call our office, you can write to Citizens Advice Newham, the Hub, 123 Star Lane, Canning Town, London, E16 4PZ, and we’ll get in touch.
