Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Steps to mindful financial management

4
Step Change provided informative and easily accessible financial management support, at a time when I felt overwhelmed by debt and without any other alternative repayment options. Reviewed on: 9th June 2025

Reassuring relief

5
Debt can be like swimming out of your depth. Suddenly you can't touch the bottom and, because you're not a strong swimmer, panic sets in. Recognised strokes become over-exaggerated thrashes of the arms and progress through the water, using it to keep afloat, turns into a battle to fight drowning. Such is debt. Stepchange appeared like a lifeguard with reassuring relief, calm professional understanding and uncomplicated solutions so that sinking once again became swimming and the safety of the shore a reality.

They supported me through it all!

Step Change are the most understanding, supportive and non judgemental people in the world. They are empathetic and understand what you need and what you don't need when you are at your most vulnerable. Don't get me wrong, they don't sugar-coat it, but at the same time, being realistic and supportive is their superpowers. Thanks for all thatbyou have done to get me and my family through this. Goodness knows where we would be without you. Keep up the good work. You don't just need Awards, you need medals! Reviewed on: 23rd July 2021

StepChange have helped me so much especially after a divorce and then being made redundant. I would not have managed to survive without their help and support. I'm still using them now but my debts are gradually disappearing and my mental health has improved dramatically. I wish I could thank every person who has helped me from StepChange personally.
