AdviceUK ran a national survey and asked over 3,00 UK adults their views and we were shocked to find out that;

  • 88% of UK adults agree everyone should be able to get free, independent advice when they have a problem.
  • 89% agree that getting advice early stops problems getting worse.
  • 63% of UK adults dealt with at least one of ten common issues in the last 12 months, including money or debt, housing, employment, benefits, energy bills and council tax.
  • 49% are confident they could find free, independent advice if they needed it tomorrow.
