💷 Improving the public's financial wellbeing in challenging times Recent figures suggest that 17.5 million UK adults are financially vulnerable, a  situation that is compounded by the cost-of-living crisis. Our research examines how people manage their money day-to-day, the challenges they face in doing so, the industry and structural issues that contribute to these challenges, and what can be done to improve the public’s financial wellbeing. CBiS has developed free-to-use materials for the public to manage their money more effectively. The needs of the young, the disadvantaged and the most vulnerable in society are a specific focus. Our projects have informed local and national financial wellbeing policies and improved the practices of national and community organisations working to reduce financial hardship.

🏆 SNG (Sovereign Network Group) and Policy in Practice have today won the Resolve Poverty Award for Partnership Working (Strategy)! This clip is from a recent Policy in Practice webinar, where SNG reflects on their partnership with Policy in Practice and the great things that can be achieved through strategic collaborations. Debt Advice Manager Hana Westby says: 💬 “In the last year, we have engaged 1,342 households with our Better Off calculator, and we’ve seen a potential benefit increase of £1,661,886. “We have also worked to integrate the standard financial statement, to align our income and expenditure with the wider financial services sector. This is vital to truly understand the facets of a customer’s financial situation, ensuring that we can support them to make better financial decisions, and ultimately provide them with the correct support.” 👉 Learn more about our awards: resolvepoverty.org/awards/

How can communities ensure that their assessments are right-sized, aligning expenditures with the actual costs of maintaining and operating the property? How can communities convince owners of a budget plan that puts the association on a financially prudent course?
