I can’t afford my debts, what can I do?
Dealing with debt can be stressful and if you don’t feel well enough to manage this, you can give permission to your carer to deal with your debts for you. To do this, write a letter to your lender or other creditor to confirm that you give your authority for someone else to deal with your affairs.
