clean slate financial wellbeing services
London
Engaging, enabling and empowering vulnerable people to regain control of their
financesClean Slate is a not-for-profit organisation set up to provide financial
education and support to hard to reach vulnerable people – originally to those
battling drug and alcohol addiction. Financial difficulties can exacerbate
issues for those fighting addictions and make the recovery phase more difficult.
Our service was set up to provide free, confidential face to face support to
help; not only ‘wipe the slate clean’, but to educate people so that they can
manage their own finances effectively, and not fall back in to the same
financial problems in the future. WHO WE ARE 01_icon Financial Inclusion for All
Our services have been designed to work closely with members of the community
who have encountered financial difficulties due to lifestyle choices and prevent
the likelihood of relapse, for example, into former drinking and substance
misuse patterns, which impact on their financial position in life. Working a lot
with service agencies such as Changing Lives and Crisis, as well as housing
providers across the region including Derwentside Homes and Cestria, it has
become apparent that much of what we offer is equally applicable to help the
wider community.
