Debt Advice
Since we launched our online Directory version 2.0 >, we have had a number of requests for links to more information on Debt, and managing your money.
We have added more links to the Directory, we have also zipped up our debt self-help pack for you to download - it brings together some guidance from One Voice as well as helpful leaflets and forms from the National Debtline. You should only download it if you have broadband connection as it is 3.11MB>>

Volunteers are working on an audio version, and we are in talks with the University about a signed introduction to the directory.
The website version of the new expanded Directory was launched at the end of May, it is about 3 times the size of the old one, and better organised, and more visual, based on comments and suggestions from our users.
Bus changes update
The company that runs most of our buses - National Express West Midlands - has listened to the many criticisms of its temporary bus routes plan put forward by disabled groups and many passengers. The buses that have been ending their route at the bottom of darlington street, will now go much further into the city centre. More>
