New home for Burnley CAB as it faces funding cuts

The new headquarters, in Cow Lane, will house Burnley and Pendle’s CAB team, and bosses are keen to maintain a high standard of service despite funding cuts.

The organisation will also open a dedicated telephone advice line for the East Lancashire area from its new base.

Claire Strachan, manager of Burnley CAB, said: “We currently service more than 10,000 clients each year, so there’s a great call for our services.

“However, like many organisations we’ve faced funding challenges in the current climate and our move to Lodge House is a key part of our response to those challenges.
