Manchester City Council plans to shut its Manchester Advice service, which provides free and confidential advice and information to Manchester residents.
Manchester Advice provides information on a range of subjects, such as moving into work, education or training, benefits and pensions, and housing problems.
The council says that the service is no longer required as it has commissioned the Citizens Advice Bureau and its partners to provide general welfare and advice services across the city.
