Welcome! Our Citizens Advice Bureau provides advice in the Stroud District in Gloucestershire. In our last financial year we helped 3,350 individuals who raised a total of 9,200 issues with us. For many of these people, I feel we are the real fourth emergency service. But we are a charity and funding limits what we can do. And our funding has been hit by the cuts. So if you want to make a real difference to lives in the Stroud District, please give generously! Every pound helps. If you would like to help in other ways - for example organising a coffee morning, undertaking a sponsored challenge or other event to support the bureau please let me know.

We know that every individual experiences or reacts to grief in their own personal way; each loss is unique.

Peer Support is provided by our team of FFAMS Befrienders, who offer their experience, knowledge, emotional and practice support All our services are free of any charge and can be easily accessed via, telephone, face-to-face, group support or by email. FFAMS operates a grass roots Befriending Service. Telephone and Email support providing free and confidential support and advice. Befrienders will have experienced the loss of a loved one through murder and suicide. Alternatively they will have themselves attempted suicide or had suicidal thoughts. The death of a loved one can cause great pain and sadness whatever the cause of death. However when a loved one has died through murder or suicide, it’s a devastating double tragedy. Not only will they have the shock of the unexpected death, they also have the trauma of the manner of the death, sometimes through violent circumstances. The bereaved often struggle with a complex range of additional pressures, and emotions including; deep shock, guilt, self-blame, trauma and anger.
