Our research
As a result of our casework we:
- send powerful and in-depth Evidence Forms to Citizens Advice Central Office in order to influence the Government when they are planning new laws
- highlight issues that are affecting our clients to MPs, local councillors and other policy makers
- talk with Surrey Councils about their services
- work with local housing associations for the benefit of their tenants
- liaise with neighbouring Citizens Advice offices to identify and research local issues that are adversely affecting our clients so we can work together to improve outcomes for local people.
What's happening now
Citizens Advice Mole Valley have been collecting data on the cost of rental accommodation in Mole Valley as part of a Surrey-wide analysis of the Local Housing Allowance (LHA). Although LHA rates have increased, there are still shortfalls in housing support.
