What the service does

Financial Counselling provides information and support to help people affected by cancer manage debts and everyday costs. This service also supports carers. Financial counsellors can provide information and guidance to help patients and carers understand their financial options, including around how to manage debts and everyday expenses. They can help prepare a budget or speak to creditors on behalf of patients and carers. This service is available across New South Wales. A referral to the Financial Navigation Service is required first.
