CITIZENS ADVICE BUREAUX (SALFORD) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR Ef4DED 31 MARCH 2025 ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable #ctivities Overview and Summary ofActivity In 2024, the new Govemmet)t set out some major proposals for changes to th¢ Current system of disability sUPPOrt for pwle of working age, set out tn a Green Paper. In the context of our working in salfOr￿ this led to an analysis of the Pathway to Work Green pa]Kr which indicated some potential SI￿tfiCallt and alarn]ing cons¢quencc5 locally. initially indicatiDg between 9.000 and 14.000 people may be affe¢t¢d with a potential reduction in benefit of up to £23 millions. Direct work ID Salford Ovcr the financial year ending 3 1st March 2025, we advised 15.526 clients with 73,549 problems or issues. Over the few years, we have noti¢ed an increase in the number of issues that our clients face often leading to greater Complexity for our advice staff and volunteers. Of these issues: - 310/0 or 23,133 i&sues WCTC to do with Benefits 150/0 or 11227 issues were to do with Housing 12Q/D or 8,800 issues were to do with Univ¢Tsal Credit 131J/o or 9.918 issues were to do with Debt The Icvel ofuniversal CTcdil cnquiries ren]ained high as we moved into the fillal stage of manag¢d migrdtion. R¢f¢rrals to food banks in Salford are also a significant part of our role, with over 1000 households using a local food baT]k through our support and fff¢rral8. There has been a noticeable reduction in death amd bereavem¢nt advice and hopefvlly this reflects better public health mortality across the city. Impact of our a¢ttvEty in Salford The impact of our work in Salford with citizens. especially around fiTwAcial advice and benefit take up. is analysed every year by th¢ Ciliz¢ns Advice National Association. This indicates that- - Our overall financial value to the city was £4.8 million. - Our public value was £35.5 million - Our total value to the people we help w¥5 nearly £32.000.000 - The value we provided to the local authority by avoiding homelessness was over half £1 million - The impact that we had in reducing the use of health services was around three quarters of a million with a total gain to the NHS in Salford of nearly £9￿,000 - We enablcd individuals to claim an additional £1.2 million in attendance aUowan¢e. which is likely to have preventcd these individuals and families from requesting support under the Care Act from th¢ council. - The gain to the local social housing providers w&s around £1.4 million largely through the Avoidance of evictions. - And in tenns of keeping people in worl the gain to the region and central government was £1.8 million. To sum￿se this activlty. for every £1 invested in us. we created: - £4.01 in fiscal value £31.35 in public value - £26.48 in th¢ value to the peopl¢ wc helped. Page 3
