Money Guiders

Developing skills. Sharing understanding. Improving lives.

Money Guiders is a learning and development programme provided by the Money and Pensions Service. It includes the UK Money Guiders Network – a growing community, connecting all types of money guidance practitioners. The idea is simple: we can all learn from each other and develop professionally together. As part of the Money Guiders Network, you’ll have access to free resources, events and learning opportunities based around your needs. There’s a dedicated network in each of the four UK nations (England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland) and we all work together to deliver a wide range of useful activities, so you can take your help further.
