County Durham Money Advice Centre will work with individuals either in their own homes or in our office to talk over debt problems and putting together a budget to enable day to day expenses. Entitlement to benefits will be checked and help given to claim any that are not yet being received so maximise income. We will not judge in any way but work with individuals to get things sorted out in the most appropriate way.

County Durham Money Advice Centres is our debt advice service. Our dedicated advisers help with debt management, budgeting and benefit advice. In 2016 the team saw 344 new clients, helping them tackle a combined debt of £3.2 million.
