About Credit Counselling Society London

Credit Counselling Society London is a non-profit organization located in the Downtown area on Talbot Street. It serves individuals and families in London and the surrounding areas who are seeking free, confidential, and non-judgmental credit and debt counselling to improve their financial well-being. The organization offers a variety of debt relief solutions and money management services. These include a Debt Management Program (DMP) for unsecured debts, where experienced and certified counsellors negotiate with creditors to consolidate multiple debts into one affordable monthly payment, often with reduced or zero interest. Other services include budgeting assistance, credit rebuilding programs, and financial literacy education. Their educational offerings are delivered through in-person workshops, pre-recorded online workshops, and train-the-trainer sessions covering topics such as personal money management and the wise use of credit. Established in 1996 with its first office in New Westminster, BC, the Credit Counselling Society has grown to serve Canadians across six provinces. The organization describes its mission as helping people achieve financial well-being through objective counselling and education. It highlights its history of helping nearly one million people and notes that it is BBB Accredited and an international affiliate of the National Foundation for Credit Counselling. The society also lists numerous accolades, including over 80 awards such as Consumer Choice Awards and Excellence in Financial Literacy Education awards. Clients can access support through confidential appointments conducted in-person or by phone. The organization provides a library of personal finance resources and offers a way for potential clients to determine the best path forward by answering four simple multiple-choice questions online.
