What support can we offer?
Ancora is a free service for anyone in Oldham. We can help you in a crisis with access to food and support with housing issues.
We can also provide support in Oldham with finances and debt, income/benefit maximisation and building your life skills.
We provide one to one support with trained members of our team as well as the opportunity to connect with others through our hubs or through one of our local courses.
Hub Support
Our Community-based Advice Hubs are located at a range of venues around Oldham.
We offer telephone support every weekday from 10-3pm. We will take your initial enquiry and support you if we can. If this doesn’t work for you, we are happy to meet with you in person and can arrange this at a convenient time and place.
