We are delighted to share that we have been awarded a grant from the Clothworkers’ Foundation.🎉

This funding will support important capital improvements within our organisation including enhancements to our website – which was designed by me and is definitely ready for a refresh! – as well as the purchase of a new digital case recording system to strengthen the security of our client records.
The new system will also support us as we continue to expand, helping us ensure that case notes and ways of working are consistent across the organisation and used in the same way by everyone at Colchester Community Debt Support.

These improvements will help us work more efficiently and continue providing the best possible support to the people who rely on our service. We are incredibly grateful for this funding and the difference it will make to our CIC. Thank you to the Clothworkers Foundation!✨

Mental Health Awareness Week reminds us that taking action for our mental wellbeing can start with asking for help.
Money worries and debt can have a huge impact on stress, anxiety, and overall mental health - but you don't have to face it alone. Seeking debt advice is a positive first step towards feeling more in control and supported.

If you are struggling financially, please reach out. Our friendly, confidential advice service is here to help without judgement.💚

Hello everyone👋

Just a quick update to say we will be taking a short break from Monday 20th April to Monday 4 May 2026. This means there won't be any drop in sessions during this time and access to any messages or emails will be very limited.

Sessions will start back up again from Tuesday 5th May and we will respond to messages and emails as soon as we possibly can.

Thanks so much for all your support as always. 💚💛

We will be attending our first community event on Friday - if you're around, feel free to pop by and say hello!👋

It's our first one, so it would be great to see some friendly faces, have a chat, and support a great local event. Hope to see you there! 😀
