We are not going on a summer holiday

Taking out a personal or secured consolidation loan to help manage your finances may help you to have sufficient improved cash flow to catch a summer holiday next time around after it emerged that one in five families cannot afford to go to the beach.Barnardo`s has worked out that a "no frills seaside trip" over an August bank holiday weekend could cost over £170. This was based on finding the cheapest train fare for a family of four, booked two weeks in advance, as well as adding on basics like sun cream, ice cream and fish and chips.
Remarking on the figures, the charity`s chief executive, Javed Khan, notes that "the prime minister has put family life at the heart of government and promoted the staycation, yet for hundreds of thousands of families struggling to make ends meet… a trip to the pier is but a pipe dream".
Homeowners who are unable to keep on top of cash flow due to multiple significant debts may find a secured loan could be used to refinance debts to an affordable payment, leaving you to save up for family holidays abroad to create those magic moments that your family will cherish for a lifetime. The new loan could pay off all of your existing repayments, leaving you with just one, lower bill to sort out each month. Bear in mind consolidating your credit in this way may well mean you pay back more over the term of the loan. So only borrow what you need to and think carefully before securing other debts against your home.
