Mental Health

Specialist advice is available from the citizen’s advice and law centre in Derby about mental health.  This can be for yourself or a family member. People must qualify though, for legal aid to take advantage of this important service.  

Debt

If you are worried about getting into debt, or you are already in debt, contact the advice centre.  They can not only advise you how to avoid problems but help you make up a budget plan.  Advisors at the Derby centre can also assist by contacting those you owe money to, so you might come to some workable agreement.
