Money Skills 1-2-1 Budgeting Sessions

Between November 2009 and the end of March 2010 the Money Skills Service is able to help individuals with their budgeting and is looking to arrange suitable venues to hold these sessions.
We want to support those hit hardest by the credit crunch and aim to help people and families overcome the financial pressures imposed upon them by the recession.

Within these sessions we would work with customers on a 1-2-1 basis to:

Prioritise their expenditure

Reduce their expenditure

Budget for irregular and unexpected expenses

Draw up a realistic budget Planner

Work out the best way to pay bills

Enable them to sort out their debts and put them back in control of their finances

Refer and signpost to other appropriate agencies for more in depth advice on issues such as debt, housing, benefits etc.
