Social and financial counselling

The social and financial counselling is there to help with questions and difficulties of a financial, social and personal nature. Sometimes brief information is enough, sometimes the solution to a problem requires more intensive discussion. With their knowledge of a wide range of topics, our social counsellors can help you find solutions.
Counselling usually takes place in a personal one-to-one meeting. However, you can also call or send an e-mail - all enquiries will of course be treated confidentially.
