Financial Life Skills Programme

Bespoke programme for 16 – 30 year olds, preparing young people for employment & running their own home.

Building the Financial Capability of tomorrow’s generation.

At Kith & Kin, our focus lies in empowering individuals to make positive financial decisions. As part of that purpose, we must intervene early in peoples’ lives, and ensure they have the most skills & knowledge before they enter the working world. Through our Financial Life Skills Programme, young people can learn about a range of areas of financial management, ensuring they are more prepared for their futures.

In this session, young people will learn about

budget planning
How payslips work
Credit Scores
paying household bills
mortgages

In formal education, young people are irregularly taught how to manage their money effectively, focusing on academic curriculum, rather than life skills. By educating & being open with young people about money management, we can provide them with understanding and skills that will prepare them for the world of work, and their later life.
