Young People and Money

Jeannette has done a day training course about young people and money. The course was sponsored by the FSA and is linked to the Every Child Matters initiative. It was designed to enable youth work professionsals to help NEET young people begin to understand and manage their personal finances. The course covered:

• Understanding the psychology of young people and money
• Helping young people make the most of their money
• Enabling young people to make informed decisions about saving and borrowing
• Helping young people manage debt
