I was a nervous wreck with debts piling up after being made redundant. Stepchange was recommended by a family member and it was the best thing I ever did. They talked me through everything and set up a manageable payment scheme. Reviewed on: 19th May 2024

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
