In the UK, 79% of adults experience stress at least once a month, according to statistics shared by the Stress Management Society. One key stress-inducing factor in recent times is financial – particularly in the face of overwhelming expenses or daunting budgeting decisions. 

How can we help consumers to tackle financial stress?

Financial struggles often lead to stress and anxiety, exacerbated by the stigma associated with debt, which can prevent individuals from seeking assistance. 

Fortunately, Auriga is here to help. We work with a range of organisations – including social housing providers – to support people through life’s challenges, with a range of easy access solutions including crisis support vouchers, expert income maximisation advice, application assessments, fund management and more.

Our experienced and friendly team deliver a holistic range of services, saving you and your customers both time and money. We are passionate about helping our partners navigate regulatory requirements, maximising the impact of funding, while prioritising and improving customer wellbeing.

We know how to create social value that makes a tangible difference in the lives of individuals facing financial hardship, and specialise in helping vulnerable and low income customers. From crisis support like emergency fuel and cash vouchers to help keep people on their feet, to long-term solutions such as full income maximisation and debt advice, our comprehensive services are proven to address and improve financial stability.

Advice for consumers

If you’re an individual experiencing financial stress, we provide assistance for managing debt, as well as free, impartial advice through our Ask Bill platform. You can access these from the comfort of your own home – so please don’t hesitate to reach out.
