StepChange changed my life!

5
StepChange changed my life! I contacted them when my marraige broke down and I didn't know how to cope with all the debt we had accumulated in my name (foolish I know in hindsight.) They were helpful and calming, and understanding. There have been frustrations over the years, as I changed my name and creditors wouldn't accept it, but StepChange as an organisation and the individuals were so supportive and helpful.
