We provide free, confidential Financial Counselling for individuals and families in the Cessnock LGA experiencing financial difficulties. We provide independent information, support, and will advocate with creditors to enable community members to gain control of their financial situation.
Financial Counsellors are professionals, governed by a Code of Ethical Practice, required to undertake continuing and professional development each year to maintain their eligibility to practice.
We are a Not-For-profit Community Charity funded by the State Government.
