Worrying about Money?

Are you worrying about money? Financial support and advice are available in Orkney.

The development of the Worrying About Money? leaflet for Orkney was led by NHS Orkney in collaboration with local organisations. The guide follows three simple steps to help you identify the cause of your money worry, what options are available and where to get help.

Leaflets are available from the Council’s Customer Services in Kirkwall and Stromness and other outlets, including some GP practices. You can also download a copy of the leaflet from https://www.foodaidnetwork.org.uk/cash-first-leaflets - scroll and select Orkney.
