The Department of Social Services visits Somerville

Staff from the Australian Government Department of Social Services (both Northern Territory and National Offices) met this week with Somerville’s Management Team to exchange information about our programs and engage in networking activities.

The Department of Social Services provides funding to support our free Financial Counselling Helpline. The Helpline is attended by experienced Financial Counsellors who assist with a wide range of finance related issues including money management, general debt and bankruptcy. Our Financial Counsellors also assist people in remote areas of the Northern Territory.

If you, or someone you know is experiencing financial problems, give the Financial Counselling Helpline a call on 1800 007 007.
