About Money Advice Scotland

The times we live through are frequently described as unprecedented.

A century pandemic and the cost-of-living crisis has magnified and entrenched inequality.

But it has also shown that change can happen rapidly and can make a real difference.

We need change. We need new ideas when old solutions cannot solve new problems.

Money Advice Scotland is Scotland’s money charity. Our mission is to be the driving force towards financial wellbeing for the people of Scotland.

We believe we will achieve this by supporting the advice workforce, empowering citizens to get help and support, and advocating for fairer policy.
