Debt Advice & Support

Debt can affect any body in any situation so it may actually surprise you who suffers from it and whose lives are completely changed by it. Issues around debt can also overlap and with other issues like food poverty, addiction or crime (to name but a few) so debt freedom is a practical but important area in people’s lives.

How you or your church can help

Devised by the award winning debt counselling charity Christians Against Poverty, one way churches and individuals can get involved is by running The CAP Money Course.

It is a revolutionary money management course that teaches people budgeting skills and a simple, cash-based system that really works. It will help anyone to get more in control of their finances, so they can save, give and prevent debt.

All projects are run by Christians and are open to all, regardless of belief/ background etc. We are always in need of more support from churches or individuals.

Christians Against Poverty provide free home-based, professional, confidential advice and information to those seeking help debt advice. Bristol NW Debt Centre, Bristol NE Debt Centre & Bristol South Debt Centre for more information visit https://capuk.org/i-want-help.
