This report seeks to understand the measures that are being undertaken to support children in care and care leavers in their financial education, and what more can be done to support them in understanding how to form positive financial habits that are essential to independent adult life.
Prepared by the All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) on Financial Education for Young People, the leading voice on issues relating to financial education in Parliament, this report is based on written evidence received from 25 organisations, two oral evidence sessions with key stakeholders plus another oral evidence session with a group of care leavers with direct experience of growing up in the care system.
