Steps to mindful financial management

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

Being able to breathe again

StepChange helped me to gather all my debts into one payment plan that I can afford comfortably whilst giving me the ability to still do the things I can about such as buying gifts and going to the gym. The most incredible part is that this is done completely free of charge so every penny is spent directly on paying off my debts. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Stepchange have honestly saved me. I was in such an awful financial situation with no idea what to do. They broke everything down for me and arranged repayments on my behalf. I no longer carry the weight of financial burden and have everything in place to repay what I owe. They truelly are an amazing charity. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023

Very helpful and thorough

Hi I'm Michael England I have been in crisis over the past years with many problems and I owed money out to three different lenders. My mental health is very poor at the moment and this all was causing me lots of stress. I've become depressed, suicidal and I self harm my wife divorced last year who h caused even more stress. I contacted step change whilst in a rehab for trauma and they were very helpful and guided me well through the whole process even though I was depressed, traumatised and my moods were all over the place. It was a great weight of pressure lifted from me and now I continue to become hopefully much better over the next months or years and then get back into work and regain a normal life I hope. Thankyou to all who helped me at step changes and I'd recommend them to anyone I know. Reviewed on: 13th July 2023
