Wiltshire Money Forums

The Wiltshire Money Forums are held quarterly throughout the year and usually take place online. The Wiltshire Money Forums bring together a variety of speakers from local, regional and national organisations to present on topics relevant to financial inclusion. They provide a valuable opportunity for Wiltshire Money members to ask questions and discuss current issues affecting their customers, clients and service users.
