A quarter of a million pound lottery grant is set to help a Wrexham debt advice charity to assist the growing number of people and households that are experiencing debt problems in the area. The three-year Shelter Cymru project was launched in the autumn and has been recruiting staff in the run up to its launch.
Around two hundred households a year will be receiving invaluable advice and assistance from the charity and officials from the project have said that the lottery funding will be a huge boost to the area, as there are more and more young people in and around Wrexham who are now experiencing debt problems and issues that they are unable to resolve without getting help, advice and assistance from experts and professionals.
One spokesperson for the charity said that it could make a huge difference to those that are bogged down with debt to be able to get the right advice to help them with their issues and that the £250,000 grant would help to ensure that the charity was in a position to offer this much needed advice to those that required it. The charity will be able to help those with both small and bigger debt problems, with the grant enabling the group to also assist those with more complicated debt issues that could involve a lot of liaison with creditors and other companies in order to try and reach a suitable solution.
