Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

5
I have been very ill with cancer. During my treatments I took my eye off the ball as the saying goes. Was too ill to deal with post and many many calls from people demanding money. I was becoming paranoid about the phone,the postman. Well debts don’t go away I didn’t know where or who to turn to, my life was such a mess, I was even contemplating ending it all. A friend came here and said why don’t we ring Stepchange the debt charity. I had nothing to lose but from that very first call, they made me feel like we can sort this out together and took me through every single step. Every person I spoke with was efficient,nothing was too much trouble, kind and compassionate. Made me feel like perhaps I could live a life. Am not the only person this happens to. Quite a bit of paperwork which I found daunting but even if I was stuck on silly questions I always got a real person to speak with. I can’t praise them high enough Reviewed on: 27th August 2024

relief from pressure

Before I was introduced to Step Change I was stressed beyond belief ,I was snappy and angry with family and friends alike. I could not spend any real time in company, and I was at times in danger of losing my job. Step Change gave me back my life and self respect. Reviewed on: 18th June 2021

Life savers

These people are actual lifesavers, each and everyone are amazing, I have spoken to a fair few staff members over the years and their patience and help has been invaluable, not one has been judgmental all they have shown is just pure kindness and empathy. Reviewed on: 18th June 2021
