Making sense of money Through MoneySense, our flagship financial education programme for 5-18 year olds, we have helped over 6.5 million young people to be more financially aware. During 2018, our employees helped over 77,000 young people learn about money through our MoneySense volunteer workshops in schools.
Money management is an essential life skill that, prepares young people for adult life as well as contributing positively to communities and wider society.
In a fast-changing, digital world it’s important that young people have the skills, knowledge, and confidence to manage their money well. MoneySense goes beyond the basics of budgeting and saving, with curriculum-based lessons that also explore fraud and scams, the connection between unmanageable debt and negative emotions and the dangers of money muling.
The programme won Gold for Best Educational Programme at the Corporate Engagement Awards in 2018 and, as MoneySense enters its 25th year, we are proud of the difference it’s making to young people and our communities.
