CAP Scotland have reached out to us to help spread the word about their debt advice service.
For over 20 years, CAP has been providing free debt help in Scotland. CAP have a Facebook page and a webpage that are specific to Scotland. They recognise that it can be very hard for people to make the first call to the helpline, so have added the option of requesting a call from the CAP Team. All you need to do is give a few basic details and then someone from the New Enquiries Team will call you back. Call 0800 328 0006 visit the website to request a call.
CAP Scotland can help in a range of ways.
They are now beginning to offer home visits again. They can help with emergency food shops and utility and mobile phone top-ups. They are also registered with an on-line giving charity, that helps connect those who want to give with those in need of help. Their befrienders stay in touch with clients and provide encouragement for them throughout their journey out of debt, and sometimes beyond.

You can read their newly released Client Report, which contains stories and statistics provided by clients. CAP know many more families are going to experience problem debt because of the economic impact of COVID and be pushed into poverty. Getting free debt help at the earliest opportunity is key. Help is available now, CAP provide free, FCA accredited advice and practical support to bring hope where it is needed most.
