Speaking to stepchange literally changed my life. They offered me reassurance, were non judgemental and so helpful. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Financial crisis

5
I left the Royal Marines in 2019 and found myself in a financial black hole. Not knowing what to do in terms of employment and having two young children to provide for as a single father. I found myself resorting to credit cards. Within 3 years I was £12000 in debt with no way out. Step Change helped me to assess my financial situation and provide immediate support by creating a payment plan whereby I could pay little and often allowing enough money to provide for my family. Without Step Change, I don’t know where I would be today. Thank you Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

A lifeline for those in trouble

5
I cannot thank Step Change enough, they have changed my life with the help I have received from them in entering onto a debt management plan. They have helped me to break the cycle of getting into debt to pay debt with an affordable, monthly plan, which they have already amended in response to my landlord raising the rent by over £100! I've still got a way to go but I know that one day I'll be debt free, thanks to Step Change... Something I could never have envisaged before. Keep up the good work! Reviewed on: 13th July 2023
