Child Poverty Action Group in Scotland’s advice line is for any adviser or frontline support staff who do not charge for their services, including welfare rights advisers, student advisers, housing staff, health staff, family support staff, social workers and solicitors.

 In Scotland they offer advice by phone or email, about any benefit for any claimant group. Note there are different contact details for advisers based in Scotland and those based in England, Wales or Northern Ireland.

Their advice is second-tier and they cannot advise members of the public directly. All advice is provided for free.
