Get support for debt and money worries this January

· by · in Cost of living. ·

If you’re struggling with debt and money worries following the festive season, and feeling the ongoing impact of the cost of living crisis, speak to someone who can help.

We’re supporting Citizens Advice Merton & Lambeth (CAML) to provide in-person advice and support in Merton’s Libraries and Wide Way Medical Centre. They have expert advisers you can speak to about your circumstances face to face.

Appointments are available across the borough through CAML’s cost of living service, supported by the council’s Cost of Living Fund.

  • Mondays 10am-4pm – Colliers Wood Library
  • Tuesdays 10am-4pm – Wide Way Medical Centre
  • Thursdays 10am-4pm – Wimbledon Library
  • Fridays 10am-4pm – Pollards Hill Library

Payday loans for short-term borrowing can seem tempting but make sure you carefully consider the terms before signing any agreements. They can have high interest rates, and repayments can be costly.

Get all the details, ask for advice, and look at alternatives such as Croydon Plus, the credit union for Merton, Sutton and Croydon, before going ahead.
