Money Advice Trust wants to hear from debt advisers about what it’s like on the frontline
A new research project has launched today looking at how the debt advice sector supports people in vulnerable situations. Conducted by University of Bristol’s Personal Finance Research Centre (PFRC) in partnership with the Money Advice Trust and the Money and Mental Health Policy Institute and grant funded by the Money Advice Service, the research involves a large scale survey of UK debt advisers’ experiences with vulnerability and advice.
Central to the research is the gathering of first hand experiences of frontline debt advisers, who are often working with people with complex needs such as serious illness, or wider life events like substance addictions or gambling problems.
Any organisations that provide debt advice and are interested in participating in the survey can register at:
