I can no longer afford the groceries
Worried about money?
Because you're struggling to pay for groceries, you can't pay other bills either, and debts are mounting.
Talking helps.
But that is precisely what is so difficult. In the Netherlands we don't talk easily about money worries. Even though everyone has money worries at some point in their lives. The danger? That you think - and say: it will be all right. Many people wait too long before seeking help. Avoid getting (further) into trouble. Because the sooner you talk about it, the sooner you can be helped. By a friend or neighbor. By Hulp op Maat or another organization in our municipality.
