People struggling to cope with consumer debt and housing problems are being helped by an internet company.
Brighton-based FastNet has given Shoreham and Southwick Citizens' Advice Bureau free access to broadband email and internet services.
The service will help the bureau, in Pond Road, Shoreham, cut its postal bill and get information to clients quicker.
FastNet, in Ditchling Road, will also scan the group's emails to make sure they are virus free.
Bureau manager Tessa Beadle said: "Using old-fashioned dial-up email and internet access was costing us a lot of money. Now we can always get up-to-date information for our clients from web sites, download internet forms and run our own web site."
Shoreham and Southwick CAB's new web site is at www.shorehamcab.org.uk
Shoreham CAB's public advice line is 01273 453756.
