We are coming to Radford!

/ Alan

We are really pleased to announce that we are launching a new ‘drop-in’ advice session in Radford.

The first session will be on Friday 15th March 2019 and will run every Friday until further notice. Our adviser will be available between 9.30am and 12 noon.

The session will be at Pathways Family Hub which is based on the Radford Primary Academy School site, Lawrence Saunders Road, Coventry CV6 1HD

Please see our home page for details of the kind of things we can help with and how our ‘drop-in’ service operates.

Thank you to all the team at Pathways Family Hub for their kind support for our service.

Pathways Family Hub covers a very large area of the city including Radford, Coundon, Allesley, Spon End, Holbrooks, Whitmore Park and Keresley. If you have children 18 years or under you can register as a member of the Family Hub. Please ask their admin officer for a registration form that will give membership to all 8 Family Hubs across the city.

Advice in Willenhall

/ Alan

Please note that all our advice sessions in Willenhall are now based at the Wood Side Family Hub on Middle Ride (next to ‘The Hut’). We are not currently delivering any sessions from The Hagard Community Centre.

Drop-in sessions at Wood Side Family Hub are on Mondays (9.30 until 12 noon) and Wednesday (9.30 to 12 noon). Appointments are also available for more in-depth enquiries and help with forms.

Please see www.covadvice.org.uk/advice or contact 024 76521100 for more details.

Stoke Aldermoor service closure

/ Alan

It is with regret that we have to announce that we are currently unable to offer advice services in Stoke Aldermoor.

This has been a difficult decision but has had to be taken due to a combination of factors, including long term staff shortages.

Stoke Aldermoor residents are able to attend any of our other sessions across the city.  The nearest are at Willenhall and at Stoke Library but we have many others available.  Full details at www.covadvice.org.uk/advice

We apologise for the inconvenience caused.

Summer changes

/ Alan

Due to staff shortages, and some building closures over the summer, we need to make some temporary changes to our advice service delivery.  We strongly advise you to check our live calendar to see which advice services are running each day or to call us on 024 76521100 before travelling.

Please note that due to school holidays, our service at Spon Gate Primary School is now closed and will not reopen until Friday 14th September 2018.

We apologise for any inconvenience caused.

Every Wednesday:
