Together with young people, we have created innovative, high impact and high energy workshops that bring money to life. Our experts help to build young people’s money knowledge, skills, mindsets and habits at key transitional moments. By spend, we are the UK’s largest specialist charity dedicated to this cause.
MyBnk covers topics such as saving, budgeting, debt, independent living and public and student finance. We also design projects and training programmes for others. Since 2007 we have helped over 275,000 young people learn how to manage their money.
Our programmes focus on helping:
- The very young – When habits are set.
- Aged 14-18 increasingly engaging with money – Preparing for the future.
