Brilliant and sympathetic help and advice

I had got myself into a very bad situation through my own stupidity. I was advised to contact Step Change and from day one they have been excellent in helping me to sort out my situation. The operators I have spoken to have all listened with a sympathetic ear and I have now got things under control. I always know that should I encounter any more difficulties, they are at the end of a phone. I am very grateful for the help I have received and I hope this will be recognised in the awards.

Stepchange has helped us turn our lives around

Before my family sought help, we were struggling to keep our finances in check. We were owing to a number of creditors and couldn't see a way to pay them each month. From the start, the staff at stepchange have been exceptional and so understanding. Especially during the recent covid period. Slowly but surely we are working with them to get us into a position where we are finally debt free. We Couldn't have done it without stepchange. Thank you so much. Reviewed on: 24th July 2021
