Throughout life, we all encounter problems that catch us unprepared, or are beyond our control. When local residents need guidance and advice support, Citizens Advice Merton and Lambeth (CAML) is here to provide them with free, independent, impartial, and confidential advice. We also support the improvement of policies and practices that affect people’s lives both locally and nationally through our Research and Campaigns work.

CAML is an independent advice charity supporting over 20,000 people a year. We are one of London's leading and busiest advice services.

The scale and impact of the Cost of Living Crisis is unlike anything we’ve experienced even compared with advice demand during the pandemic. Demand for our support continues at record highs. Within this, on-the-day demand at CAML offices has risen nearly 400% in the past 6 months. We’re unfortunately also seeing a return to residents queuing before opening hours for our support. Help us to support the tens of thousands of residents from across Merton and Lambeth needing urgent advice support by doing a sponsored challenge for us.
