I have a friend who is in serious need of some help and advice. I dont know the exact amount of her debts but i do know that its a fair few thousand. She has recently broken up with her husband, lost her job through being made redundant and is in fear of losing her house. She has two kids and doesnt recieve alot from the dad (i know the CSA is a waste of time
) Any help or advice would be appreciated and taken with great thanks.

Hi and welcome,
it would really help if you were able to post specific details of your friend's debt - amounts etc plus a current soa so that the lovely folks on here can help as much as possible.
Maybe your friend would give you some details or post here themselves.
