About Opportunity
We deal with benefits, debt, housing problems, employment issues and any general topic. Volunteers are trained in the basics of all subjects and in how to use our extensive information files. There is always a high level of expert support and you are never left to deal with a problem that you feel is beyond your capabilities. Volunteers may train further in a particular area that they are interested in and we can organise training at all levels.
