Money Matters Project Update

26th January 2009

Money Matters Project update 20th January 2009

The Money Matters Project has now been up and running for several weeks, with the new drop in service due to start next Tuesday 27th Jan at 11.00 at Carisbrooke House (all welcome).

John Sydes the project worker has over 8 years advice giving experience with specialist knowledge of all the main issues the project covers.

Our aim is to promote a greater awareness of how to earn, spend, save, budget, lend, and deal intelligently with all matters of personal and collective finance.

By doing this it is hoped we can gain a greater control over our Financial wellbeing, being in control of events rather that event being in control of us.

This is just a reminder of some of the issues we can help with.

  • Benefit awareness
  • Debt problems
  • Budgeting
  • Awareness of how mental health issues effect ones ability to deal effectively with financial matters.
  • Housing Rent or Mortgage arrears
