Debt Awareness Week: free guide available for members

22 March 2024

A free new factsheet has been produced to give Hertfordshire Police Federation members advice on how to improve their financial wellbeing and where to find support for debt issues.

Police Mutual, which provides financial services and welfare support to the police service, has produced the guide to mark this year’s Debt Awareness Week (18-24 March).

The factsheet provides practical tips to improve your financial wellbeing, including taking stock of your finances, how to budget, and understanding your debts.

It includes suggestions on how and where to make savings, reviewing financial products such as mortgages and insurance, and setting savings goals.

It also highlights the impact money worries can have on mental health, and information on where you can get support to help tackle debt.
