    They would help with personal debt but not business ones. 
    Help for business debt would be here.  Business debt advice | Free debt help | Business Debtline | Business Debtline

    So he might have two different debt solutions running alongside each other, one for any personal debt and one as a self-employed trader. 

    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    Hi,

    Just to clarify, StepChange aren’t able to offer advice to self-employed people. Instead, we recommend getting in touch with Business Debtline, as they can help with both his business and personal debts.

    Regards,
