A new project from Shepton Bassett Debt Advice Service
Are your bills getting on top of you?
Can you afford to heat your home?
Do you have to hide from the landlord every Tuesday morning?
Even though we're doing fine now that we've got this grant from the council, we imagine it's probably quite difficult for you. That's why we started Debt Matters.
Come along to one of our drop-in sessions and speak to a semi-professional Debt Adviser. Here's what we can do for you:
We will make you aware of your debt. Awareness-raising is one of our key objectives, and even though you may think that you are already aware of your debt, we will ensure that you are fully aware of it to a professional standard.
We'll listen sympathetically to your problems, and nod in all the right places. Our advisers have been trained to be calm and compassionate, and will help you to adopt a more optimistic attitude to your poverty and destitution.
We'll give you a biscuit.*
We will give you a "Debt Matters" branded pen, baseball cap and/or trolley token.
We will apologise for not being able to provide any practical help and signpost you to another advice agency.**
So if you are struggling with debt, visit Debt Matters.
Funded by Shepton Bassett Borough Council
Thank you to Councillor Normington and we hope you enjoyed the little "gift" we sent you.
Your support will help us secure funding for next year. Tell your friends.
*While stocks last.
**We cannot guarantee that another agency will be able to help, but you may be able to pick up more pens, baseball caps and trolley tokens.
