    In 2018, about 37% of adult Londoners were in debt. By 2022, 12% were accruing debt to cope with rising living costs. This burden can severely affect mental and physical health. The Beacon CAP Partnership employs two debt coaches, helping thirty six new clients each year, while providing continued support to those already on their journey out of debt. This service is only possible thanks to the advice and training our coaches receive by CAP and we need you to help us fund this essential support.

    Since opening our debt centre in 2015, over 120 individuals have become debt-free, with many more on their journey to financial independence. With additional funding, our debt coaches can keep providing in-home visits and free expert advice for another year. We believe every life is precious, and this support offers hope for those facing unmanageable debt.
