Hi Estee - what is the question please? What level of debts have you got? Do you own any assets like a house?

The first thing you should do is to get some benefits advice. That income is far too low for an adult and 3 kids. There may be variables in there that we do not know about of course, but on face value that is your first port of call.

You need to feed your family and pay your essentials first, the debts are of a lesser priority. I don't doubt that they will need sorting at some point, but one thing at a time.

Regards.

I agree with size5. You need to get the income sorted before you know what debt repayment is affordable.

Pop along to CAB, or your local authority might have a debt advisor who can sort out what benefits you might be entitled to.
