In a world dominated by austerity politics and policies, Advising in austerity provides a lively and thought-provoking account of the conditions, consequences and challenges of advice work in the UK, presenting a rare and rich view of the world of advice giving. Based on original research it examines how advisors negotiate the private troubles of those who come to Citizens Advice Bureaux (CAB) and construct ways forward. Exploring how advisors are trained, the strong contributor team reflect on the challenges facing Citizens Advice Bureaux in the future, where austerity will ensure that the need for advice services increase, while funding for such services declines. 606 $aPoverty & unemployment$2bicssc 606 $aCivil rights & citizenship$2bicssc 610 $adebt 610 $alaw 610 $acitizens 610 $acitizens advice 610 $aausterity 610 $aAcas 610 $aCase study 610 $aEmployment tribunal 610 $aHomelessness 610 $aLabour law 610 $aLegal aid 610 $aSolicitor 610 $aUnfair dismissal 615 7$aPoverty & unemployment 615 7$aCivil rights & citizenship 700 $aKirwan$b Samuel$4edt$01237903 702 $aKirwan$b Samuel$4oth 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 912 $a996517760903316 996 $aAdvising in austerity: Reflections on challenging times for advice agencies$93013417 997 $aUNISA
