How can the MHCBS help you?

This service is designed specifically for people who are receiving mental health crisis treatment in England or Wales and have qualifying debts.

Through the service, you will receive “breathing space” from most organisations you owe money to. During this time, they cannot:

  • Charge interest, penalties, or make any other charges to your debt
  • Enter your home to take away anything they own
  • Evict you because you are behind with rent payments.

Using the MHCBS service can provide you with the breathing space you need to focus on your mental health without the added pressure of growing debts.
