Advice Now Plus is a partnership of eight not-for-profit information and advice organisations in Kensington and Chelsea. From October 2013 to September 2015 we were funded by the Big Lottery.

Advice Now Plus aims to explore new ways of collaborating, supporting organisations to develop and ensure better outcomes for service users. In this way we aim to ensure advice services and voluntary organisations build resilience, are equipped to meet future needs and provide the best advice possible for our community.

The project currently runs an online directory for advisers, coordinates the Kensington and Chelsea Advice Forum and Advice Volunteers Forum, and organises occasional free training for advice and information staff and volunteers in the borough.

To fill the family service and activity provisions' gaps between existing statutory agencies and the need of African French speaking families, who have multiple unmet needs and lives in the LBKC.
