Jacob Rees-Mogg MP visits CAB

Jacob Rees-Mogg, MP for North East Somerset, visited the Citizens Advice Bureau headquarters in Bath on Friday 9th December.

Jan Westrope the Chief Executive of CAB welcomed Jacob and showed him around the offices.

Jacob said “I was pleased to visit the CAB in Bath and to talk to people who work there.  Both the paid professionals and the volunteers are passionate about the work they do to help some of the most unfortunate members of society.  It is an important service efficiently run by Jan Westrope who told us the volunteer workers put in 52,000 hours per year helping people”.  

“This is a valuable service to the community, particularly with issues of housing, benefits and money.  People, through no fault of their own, can find themselves in difficult situations perhaps due to health or employment problems and need someone to turn to for help”.
