Abta Lifeline has partnered with Citizens Advice Manchester to help hard up agents get urgent financial advice.
This year, 42 applications for help have been submitted by agents to the charity.
Financial troubles often lead to agents contacting the industry charity each year.
Speaking at an Abta Lifeline fundraising dinner at the Royal Air Force Club last night, Abta Lifeline director Trudie Clements said: “It only takes one life-changing incident, like people falling ill which means you cannot pay your mortgage, and then Abta Lifeline can try and help them.
“We have just launched a partnership with Citizens Advice Manchester who are experts in debt, housing and benefits.
