Mental health
We’re here to help you feel more in control of your money.
Why telling us can help
At some time in our lives, many of us experience mental health conditions. Sometimes this can make it hard to deal with money or your finances could be affecting your mental health. At these times, we can help you with added support.
Any information you give us about your mental health is confidential and we will only ever use it to help you. It won’t affect any products or services you have or take with us.
We will listen to your needs and work with you to see what we can do to help.
We have partnered with the Money and Mental Health Policy Institute and have achieved the Essentials level in their Mental Health Accessible Programme. This means we have taken action to improve the accessibility of our services to people experiencing mental health conditions. You can contact Mental Health UK who can also provide information and help too.
