A charity which provides vital advice services across North Ayrshire is to shut down.
The North Ayrshire Citizen Advice Service (NACAS), which closed its outreach service on Arran at the start of the year, has announced that all of its services will stop at the end of the month.
As previously reported in the Banner, a change in the way funding was provided to public advice servic-es by North Ayrshire Council, led to the closure of the Arran branch – and now the remainder of the services across the area.
