WE ARE STILL HERE FOR TELEPHONE, EMAIL ENQUIRIES & WEBCHAT

In all, since March 2020, we have dealt with 15556 client contacts with 22152 issues. We have helped clients gain £7.6 million; this is money that in all likelihood is being reinvested in our communities. We have also managed a 230% increase in employment issues for clients. WE CAN HELP MANY MORE. 

DAGCAS is complying with government guidance to help contain the spread of COVID-19. Due to the sharp rise in Coronavirus cases in Wigtownshire our bureau in Stranraer will STOP face to face contact with the public. 

However, Dumfries, Annan and Stewartry will remain open for URGENT appointments and a drop-in service and to see people who have no access to telephone and internet.

If you can contact us by telephone or through our website then you should continue to do so. This will be a quicker way of speaking to an adviser. 

We will deliver an essential service that focuses on telephone, webchat and email enquiries.
