Rotherham Story

Help with debt & benefits after a painful relationship breakdown.

Debt help

The issue

After a painful relationship breakdown, a 49-year-old client living alone was left struggling with her mental health and facing severe financial hardship.

Her joint Universal Credit claim had stopped, leaving her with zero income and relying on a food bank to survive.

Real story

The outcome

Our team stepped in to provide holistic support, referring her to our specialist debt team and guiding her through a Personal Independence Payment (PIP) application. We supported her through the entire process, including filling out the complex forms. Thanks to this teamwork, she is now receiving dedicated debt advice and was successfully awarded the enhanced rate for daily living, bringing in a vital £108.55 per week to help her rebuild her life.
