Mrs Y had built up debts which had become a problem for her as the cost of funding the debts was seriously impacting on her standard of living. Having involved her family, a plan was arranged to release £15000 on a lifetime mortgage. These funds enabled her to clear her debts which improved her income position significantly. The greatest impact for herself was the release of the pressure on her finances which eased her financial worries. This case has proved that even releasing a smaller amount can make a real difference to the circumstances of an individual.
