Wiltshire Money is a project managed and delivered by Wiltshire Citizens Advice.
We are the lead body for financial inclusion activity within Wiltshire, providing a network and strategic framework for organisations at local, regional and national levels to coordinate, collaborate and share knowledge.
We support organisations across Wiltshire so that they can provide the best information, advice and guidance to their clients regarding financial inclusion issues. This is particularly important as Wiltshire residents continue to be affected by the cost of living crisis.
We offer our members events and training opportunities throughout the year.
Join our mailing list to keep informed about all the latest local, regional and national financial inclusion news, updates and training.
