About this e-learning material

Debt can bring up worry, shame and a sense of being stuck. This e-learning material offers a calm, practical space to look at borrowing honestly and to understand your own situation one step at a time.

You read about gathering the details of what you owe in one place, understanding common types of borrowing in general terms, and thinking through different ways people approach repayment planning. Exercises help you organise your information, notice spending patterns, and prepare questions before speaking with lenders or support services. Other sections look at the emotional side of debt, including managing stress and talking about money with the people close to you.

It suits anyone who feels overwhelmed by borrowing or simply wants a clearer structure for thinking about it. This material is for general self-help learning and is not financial advice, so please speak to a qualified professional about your own situation.
