About Us

Ripon and District CAB is an independent charity, affiliated to the National Association of Citizens Advice Bureaux.

Our manager is Linda Marsden. We serve the towns and villages of Ripon, Boroughbridge, Masham and surrounding areas. Click here for a map of our catchment area.

We give free, confidential, impartial and independent advice and information to any member of the public. We advise on a full range of legal issues, including benefits, debt, consumer issues, housing, employment, the legal system, tax, immigration and family law.

We are staffed almost entirely by dedicated, skilled volunteers. We are open to all for assessment interviews three days a week, including an evening slot on Thursdays, and we offer follow-up appointments at other times.

Our bureau is wheelchair-accessible and we have a parking space for people with mobility problems.

If you are not able to come to the bureau we can arrange to visit you at home.
