Much of this help has been traditionally face to face, but the organisation has been developing online services for some years. However the pandemic has accelerated our digital transformation, and we want to build the best services we possibly can whilst ensuring advice is delivered as locally as possible Building on our experience of launching the national Scottish Citizen Advice Helpline (SCAH) service, which went live on 14 April 2020, we want to enable everyone wishing to use our services, irrespective of the way they contact us [phone, chat or website] to benefit a national portal that consistently, effectively and automatically routes them to the right local CAB advisers. This would not only ensure that the chances of an allocation of a local advisor the default and enables more local deployment of advisors,. In the first instance, we want to focus on streamlining the help available for those in debt including advice on benefits and employment.
