Real help now for those in difficulty
12 May 2010: Information on this page relates to policies of the previous government and may not be up to date.
The Government has taken urgent action to support families and individuals who are struggling to cope with their financial commitments during the downturn.
Our goal is to provide those in financial difficulties with real help now to:
- help people in difficulty with their debts
- tackle bad business practices as they emerge
- assist vulnerable consumers to cope with essential bills
