I was going round in circles and after a while decided to contact this charity and now I have my life back Reviewed on: 21st June 2021

The help and direction I needed.

Without Step Change, I have no idea where I would be right now. The help and advice I received was exactly what I needed, they understood all my problems and where they had come from. Everybody I talked to were understanding and compassionate with sound advice and also the easiest people to talk about not only my financial issues but how it was affecting me and my family too. If anyone I know is ever in any financial trouble or just wants a bit of advice I would definitely recommend speaking to the people at Step Change. Thank you for all your help, MB.

Ever since circumstances beyond my control drew me to StepChange's door due to prolonged illness, the much needed STABILITY with regards to my spiraling and uncontrollable debt became present. What had exacerbated my poor situation was that I had to overcome so much ignorance I had regarding my position. StepChange has mentored me back to mental wellbeing through knowledgeable accurate information and communication for a number of years. Thank you SC! Reviewed on: 20th June 2021

When I found Stepchange I had been convinced that I would be stuck with my debt forever. I was overwhelmed and could not see a way out. They helped me set out a financial plan with which I paid toward my debt in a manageable way. I am now 3 months away from paying it all back. I gained confidence in budgeting and keeping account of my spending. I'm a happier less stressed mom and my personal finances are not so daunting anymore. Reviewed on: 20th June 2021
