Our Work – Scotland

Providing a range of financial education workshops and tools for 5-25 year olds with schools and youth organisations – Ideal for social studies, business management and application of maths, independent living
and work programmes, home learning and young adults

Our expert-led programmes aim to give young adults in vulnerable circumstances ‘survival’ money skills and knowledge that they can implement immediately in their transition into independent living.

These financial education workshops focus on debt prioritisation, money management and digital finance skills. Delivered through councils, charities and non-mainstream education institutions, we help those often not in employment, education or training or leaving care, detoxify their relationship with money.

Many of our programmes are free or fully funded and can be delivered either directly in-person, virtually via secure video link or as online courses.

Every £1 spent on MyBnk’s young adult programmes creates £5.57 in social value and the impact increases as time goes on. Case studies available here.
