It is investing additional funds into a consortium of local agencies over the next critical 12 months of roll-out. Southwark Law Centre and Citizens Advice Southwark will be able to increase advice and support available, and Advising Communities will lead the research into how different groups are affected, and the most effective ways of supporting them.
