Review of the StepChange, Debt advice:

Dare to hope,!

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

Having previously worked as a family support worker I have signposted many families who found themselves in debt to this service. The care and advise provided was really supportive & helped so many families who otherwise would have been helpless. Reviewed on: 24th May 2024

Helpful Organisation

I used to work with people who had barriers to employment and often they would have debt problems. Whenever I approached StepChange for assistance they were respectful, efficient and found solutions giving my clients peace of mind for the first time often in a long time allowing them to move forward to a better quality of life.
