Tackling financial exclusion through education and advice

We work with people from deprived wards on a daily basis through our work with the long term unemployed and financial problems are becoming an increasingly common barrier to employment and progression.

We believe that financial exclusion is having a significant impact on thousands of people in the United Kingdom and we are committed to delivering initiatives or our own, as well as managing and delivering initiatives the government has introduced to tackle this issue.

With 1.5 million of the poorest households in across the country without access to an account of a financial product of any kind this is clearly a significant issue and one that we believe passionately in countering.
