Debt can wreck lives. Working in partnership with Crosslight – a Christian Debt Advice
Charity, a small team based at St. Nicholas works with clients living in LB Hounslow to ease
their debt worries. We are passionate about seeing lives restored, and people released from
the worry that comes from being in debt.
Our work involves providing comprehensive debt & benefit advice, building financial
resilience through money education and budgeting coaching, and mentoring clients with
holistic support. The team works closely with clients and creditors in order to agree a fair and
equitable solution for all parties. This is done through in-person appointments at st. Nick’s
and at various Hounslow drop-in sessions across the borough, as well as phone
appointments.
In 2025:
Our team met with 254 new clients, completed 902 appointments and led 3 free budgeting
courses.
Debts stabilised: 1222
Financial gain (through successful benefit and grant applications): £290,982.09
Financial gain (through write-off and insolvency): £270,368.91
Our service is available to all, regardless of faith affiliation (or none), and provided free of
charge. We are able to work with each client for as long as needed to try and ensure a
positive outcome.
