Focus Forum: Money and Pensions Service: Talk Money Week

Held as part of Talk Money Week, this Focus Forum is aimed at staff and volunteers from organisations supporting people with money worries or low financial confidence. The session will provide an opportunity to share experiences, identify gaps in financial education and awareness, and discuss how we can better help people access reliable information, appropriate support and safer credit options.
