More people will get free and impartial advice from the Citizens Advice Bureau following a move to Loughton library, the bureau has said.

Yesterday (April 28), the Epping Forest District Council branch celebrated its relocation to the library in Traps Hill from its previous offices in the High Road.

At a launch event, manager Rachel Poulter thanked local councils and organisations for supporting the charity organisation.

She said: “Our new offices should enable us to help more people and library staff and volunteers have made us most welcome.

“The library is a great location and now local people have more services under one roof.”

The bureau is open between 9.30am and 1pm on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday.

This summer, Loughton Town Council is also set to move to the library in an attempt to cut costs and get closer to residents.
