An advice service aimed at helping adults with issues such as childcare, housing, jobs and learning to improve their chances in work and training is being piloted by the Government. The Adult Advancement and Careers Service (AACS) will be a 'one-stop-shop' service which will be available to all from 2010, but targeted at those who are most in need. The AACS is to be piloted in ten areas: Greater Manchester; Greater Merseyside; Stoke-on-Trent and North Staffordshire; the Black Country; Brighton and Hove; South Hampshire; Slough; Brent and Ealing; Lambeth, Southwark and Wandsworth; Islington, Camden and Westminster; and Kensington and Chelsea.
