Helping everyone achieve financial wellbeing

The Money Charity’s vision is for everyone to achieve financial wellbeing by managing their money well. We empower people across the UK to build the skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours, to make the most of their money throughout their lives; helping them achieve their goals and live a happier more positive life as a result.

Money Workshops

We are excited that we have been able to increase our delivery from 900 hours of workshop in 2022, to 1,500 hours in 2023. We are grateful to our generous funders for recognising the increasing need for financial education workshops for young people.

We deliver our Money Workshops across the UK to 11-19 year olds in a wide range of settings including schools, colleges, community groups, Pupil Referral Units, and via charities. We offer pick and mix modules covering all sorts of topics from budgeting to pensions and credit to reading a pay slip, and lots in between. The workshops can be delivered face to face or virtually, and are interactive and engaging.

We are delighted to have now reached almost 280,000 young people since we begun workshop delivery, enabling them to understand their money and what they can do with it.

Uni Money Workshops

We offer virtual and face to face workshops specifically designed for undergraduate university students. For many young people, being a student is the first time that they become financially independent, so it’s a vital time to ensure they have all the information and confidence to feel like they can stay on top of their money.

 

Student Money Manual

Our 2023/24 version of our digital guide to everything you need to know about money whilst at uni is available online, for free. It’s ideal for Post-16 students thinking about going to uni, as well as those who are already there.

 

Teacher Resource Packs

Our ‘lessons in a box’ contain all the resources and instructions a teacher needs to deliver a financial education lesson without having to do the prep themselves. Packs are available for free to schools, and include topics such as insurance, budgeting, saving, renting, mortgages and credit.

Consultancy services

As experts in delivering engaging and impactful financial education, we help all sorts of organisations develop content, resources and training to enable them to deliver financial education themselves. We work with large corporates, publishers, other charities, and many more to help them to ensure that their products and services are of a high quality.

Other Money Charity news

We were delighted to be chosen as the ‘Wealth’ delivery partner for the Department of Work and Pensions’ Mid-Life MOT Initiative in the North East. We will help thousands of older workers to take stock of their work, wellbeing and finances by guiding and supporting them as they plan for work in later life and retirement.
