Stop Loan Sharks Week 2026: 11 -17 May

Loan sharks play games with people’s lives

– let’s make it game over

Loan sharks don’t always look like villains. Sometimes, they change
character, switch tactics and reinvent themselves - just like players in an
online game.

But this isn’t a game. And the consequences are real.
