The most people orientated money lenders

I took out a loan, then due to personal circumstances, had to enter a debt management programme, they offered support and were very understanding, when I fell on hardship, they allowed me to withdraw from the savings I had left to enable to me to pay for necessities, never ideal, but it was a life saver! Noone wants to mess up financially, but everyone needs compassion and these guys are amazing, just keep them in the loop if you are struggling, if people don't know, they can't offer help or a solution!
