Community Advice

The aim of the project is to provide a service for the people of Pembrokeshire within their community.  This approach focuses on prevention, puts those most in need first, and makes it easier for people to get the right support when they need it.

The service is provided in outreach locations across the county as well as remotely via telephone and video link. 

Our Team of Advisers

  1. Support people who are most in need of our service.
  2. Proactively support clients while helping them to build their skills, knowledge and confidence so they can solve their problems
  3. Offer advice that is personalised and consistent to help clients, ensuring a smooth journey of support.
  4. Reach out to people who don’t ask us for advice, through our network of partners
  5. Help people to access the right services, at the right time by enabling people to be referred to our partners to get the full range of support they need

Being able to see an advisor in a familiar place, whether it be the local hospital, their local GP surgery, community centre, or in their own homes, gives the client confidence to address their problems with the advisor.  Knowing someone will look for solutions, work on their behalf and be available when they need them gives them that, often quoted, ‘light at the end of the tunnel’

This service has proved invaluable and greatly appreciated by GP’s and other Health Care Professionals as easing their patients’ stress and anxiety leads to an improvement in their wellbeing and reduces patient visits.
