National Debtline, which offers free advice nationally, believes more people will fall into financial difficulty in the coming months due to global events affecting the cost of living.
It is urging people to seek support before reaching crisis point.
Grace Brownfield, from National Debtline, told BBC Radio Norfolk: “Unfortunately we are seeing people falling into debt for the first time because costs have been so high.
“There is often more support than people realise, but it can be quite difficult to navigate what support is available and what you are eligible for.
“That is where debt advice charities can really help.”
Mark Hitchcock, chief executive of Norfolk Citizens Advice, added: “My colleagues are very welcoming people, they are not going to increase your stress or embarrassment or shame.
“They will go through the issues, they’ll understand the background to your budget and they will look at a range of different options available, like Breathing Space, for those who are facing significant debt.”
