Money matters
Financial support from LionHeart
Financial worries affect most of us at some point in our lives. A sudden change in circumstances, especially if it’s unexpected, can have a real negative impact on our finances and leave us struggling to make ends meet.
Trying to reduce the effect that having less cash has on you and your family can be really tough to do on your own. It can also be hard to seek help when it feels as though you should be able to manage the mounting debt. You are not alone.
The people we help are just like you - they have the same worries, the same everyday issues and problems and the same hopes for the future. The difference is that when something unpredictable happened to them, they turned to LionHeart for help.
The best way to avoid getting into financial difficulty is to plan for the future as much as possible, which is why LionHeart brought in financial experts to deliver money management workshops and webinars for RICS professionals. We also offer retirement planning workshops and webinars that will help you plan for your family's future. You can find out more here.
Of course, there are some situations you simply cannot plan for. Some of the people we help have lost their jobs and are struggling to get back into work while others may be facing ill-health or stress, which is affecting their ability to afford living costs.
