Debts - how to sort
them out
Now, more than ever, finances are
being stretched - but they don't always stretch far
enough.
Being in debt can be a stressful situation, but working
out how to prioritise and address your debts does not need to be
complicated.
Most debt problems can be managed - this pack describes how you can
do this yourself in some simple steps, and provides practical and
straightforward advice that will help you work out what's coming
in, what's going out and how to make what's left work for you. It
will also help point you in the right direction if you need further
advice.
