Financial Capability Feedback
Our Financial Capability work has always been an incredibly important part of our organisation. To help in our celebration of our 15th Anniversary, we are thrilled to share that since we launched our Money Course nearly 3,000 people have attended, with thousands more using our materials to run their own sessions. Alongside this, we have held over 700 budget coaching appointments, working one-to-one with clients to help them learn and embed money skills to empower them for a more resilient future
These quotes from our Money Course guests and Budget Coaching clients demonstrate the impact that our financial capability work can have. Our financial capability services are delivered by our fantastic team of volunteers, for whom we are so grateful.

“I feel like a weight has been lifted and I can see how to move forward. One thing in particular the hosts of this course do well is the total lack of judgement. I feel bad about myself that I am in my 40’s and still so unable to manage my finances. I now have the tools to work on that and have a clear plan. Thank you so much!”
“Made me feel comfortable and calm to approach my finances. ”
“My experience with Budget Coaching has taken away my fears of managing day to day financial issues.”
I found the course very enlightening. Especially the connection between past childhood experiences within the family, and how this affects your attitudes towards money in general.

“I found the course very helpful. I gained confidence to push myself to speak with my energy company on how to plan payments for a large bill; also the advice given regarding banking tools that can help to control money was very useful. Thank you all for arranging this session.”

I loved the course and have learned so much and I'm so grateful to everyone. I only wish it was longer than 3 weeks. Due to the course I have left less stressed and met some wonderful people. Thank you.

The personalised help was very well thought out and structured. The coaching was done at my pace and was non confrontational. It has helped me have more confidence and become proactive in managing my finances. I believe the course has been the turning point for me.

“The online budget builder is a game changer. It is so easy to use and it helps with seeing where money goes to every month and where to cut down.”
