When gambling starts to affect finances, people feel trapped and like they have nowhere to turn. That’s when illegal lenders step in, offering quick loans, pulling people into a dangerous cycle of debt. These short term solutions can spiral into fear, pressure and growing debt.

This #StopLoanSharksWeek we are supporting @StopLoanSharksEngland in raising awareness of how illegal lenders operate.

Illegal lenders adapt - moving online, using social media, or pretending to be
someone you trust. But their aim is always the same: control and intimidation.

Stay one step ahead and help make it #GameOverForLoanSharks

If you or someone you know is affected, Stop Loan Sharks can help.
