We're committed to supporting customers who may be facing difficulties.
That's why we've partnered with Citizens Advice Gateshead to create Helping Hand. It's a service dedicated to our members so they can talk to an expert adviser and get support when they need it.
They provide free, confidential and impartial advice, information and guidance on a range of issues. Including: welfare benefits, housing, debt, financial wellbeing, relationships, community care, grants, and discrimination at work.
