Despite the current spotlight on household finances, people can find it difficult to open up about money and pension worries and therefore not seek available help. To start the conversation we've arranged Financial Wellbeing sessions with Citizen's Advice from Thu #TalkMoneyWeek
It’s Day 1 of #TalkMoney Week! 💬 All this week, we'll be encouraging people to have better conversations about money - whether that's pocket money, pensions or anything inbetween. How could you start a conversation about money with the people you support this Talk Money Week?

How often do we say "Alright?" as a greeting? Maybe it's time to start asking people if they really are alright. Take the time to check-in with people around you and really listen to their replies. It could be the most valuable thing you do today. #Kindness #AltruisticAugust
