Money matters can feel overwhelming, especially when life is busy and budgets are tight.

Over the session, we'll work through:

  • Understanding your relationship with money
  • Needs versus wants
  • Budgeting and managing expenses
  • Saving money and planning ahead
  • Setting and achieving financial goals
  • Spotting spending leaks and budget busters
  • Understanding debt and repayment options
  • Talking to creditors and hardship support
  • Protecting yourself from scams and fraud
  • Where to access free financial support and resources

Delivered by the Financial Counselling Service (FCS), the workshop is interactive, with practical activities, budgeting exercises, group discussions, and take-home resources you can keep using long after the session ends.

Who it's for: Carers, individuals, and families who want to feel more in control of their financial wellbeing - whatever your starting point.
