There’s no one way to volunteer, and that’s something we’re proud to celebrate this

At Musselburgh and District Citizens Advice, our volunteers come from a wide range of backgrounds, each bringing their own skills, experiences and perspectives to support our community.

If you have experience of housing issues - or an interest in housing advice - your knowledge could really help others. It’s this diversity of experience that makes our team stronger and helps us reach more people who need advice and support! ☺️

Travelling this summer? Don’t forget to check your vaccines.

If you’re planning a trip abroad - whether it’s a holiday in the sun or travelling to support Scotland - it’s important to make sure your vaccinations are up to date. Being protected before you travel can help keep you and others safe and avoid unexpected health issues while you’re away.

For more information and advice, see Public Health Scotland's post below! ☀️

Whether you’re hitting the beach this summer or joining the Tartan Army, it's important to check if you’re up to date on all your vaccines before you travel.
