We are a national charity, working across the UK to lift people out of debt and poverty. We offer free debt counselling through a network of 239 debt centres based in local churches.
There is a way out of debt; there is hope. Each year we help 20,000 people find their way out of the black hole of debt. We work out fair budgets, negotiate with creditors and can take people through insolvency procedures, so there is always an answer. We run CAP Money Courses, which are teaching 10,000 people a year to budget, save and prevent debt. We have also just launched CAP Job Clubs. We offer our services in partnership with local churches because we believe the Church holds the only message that can truly transform lives.
We are a group of people who are passionate about lifting people out of poverty, standing up for those who can't speak for themselves and bringing justice and good news to the poor. We are totally reliant on churches and individuals who share our heart to support our work as we receive no government funding. We are currently half way to our vision of having a CAP Debt Centre in every town and city in the UK so we can reach everyone suffering in debt as quickly as we can. We need you. Will you join us today?
