Our Success Stories

I’d like to say thank you not just to my counsellor but to those that make this service available for anyone to come to, to open up and talk.  This service has pulled me out of the most difficult time in my life.  I would not be anywhere as strong as I am now if it weren’t for the help that I was given.  I am finding a new and improved me.

A big thank you for what you offer at St Peters House. Your services help people in more ways than anyone could imagine. You have given me tools to have a better life. 
I haven't found anyone else that can help me and my family as much as you all have at St Peters

The people that we have interacted with within this fabulous service have been outstanding, the initial and ongoing support has made a huge difference to our lives compared to 6 months ago. They are non-judgmental and are committed to helping people get debt free....CAP has given our family a “light at the end of the tunnel”.

I felt heard and understood, and felt better in a short space of time.  I achieved all the goals I wanted to in a shorter space of time than expected.  The service was easy to access and I was comfortable there.
