CAP’s service: an overview

Fact finding

Your local CAP representative will visit you in your home. They will introduce the service and ask you about your income, bills and debts. This information will be used to create a budget for you.

Additional visits: explaining the budget

Your local CAP representative will need to visit you again to explain how you will need to stick to the budget to get out of debt.

Continuous support

The next step is for CAP to contact your secondary creditors, such as credit card and loan companies. CAP will support you until you become debt free and all we ask you to do is to work positively with us through this process.

The CAP Money Course

The CAP Money Course is a free course to help people manage their money better and learn to budget, save and spend well.

The CAP Money Course features DVD presentations by John Kirkby, the Founder and International Director of CAP. CAP trains volunteers from local churches to be CAP Money Coaches, who will then work through individual budgets with delegates.

Homegroups are what some churches call House Groups or Cell Groups. Some meet on a weekly basis, others fortnightly.

We believe that Homegroups are a vital aspect of church life where we can build deeper relationships with each other.  Homegroups enable us to be part of a more intimate community where we can support, encourage and pray for one another.  They also provide opportunities where we can learn and serve together.

Our Homegroups meet at various times and on various days, some weekly and some fortnightly.
