Gateway

When you visit the Bureau during our gateway drop-in times we will offer you a Gateway drop-in. A Gateway drop-in is a short ten minute assessment to understand how best to deal with your situation. We may refer you for a more in depth appointment with the right person(s) who can then better deal with your issue. We use Gateway as a means to help us see more clients within the local community.

Face-to-face Gateway drop-ins are available at the following times*:

Day(s)	Time
Monday to Friday	10 am until 12 noon

*Please ensure you arrive early, as these sessions are held on a first-come-first-served basis.
