Our Impact transforming financial education  

Improving wellbeing for children, teachers and families through education talking about money

Our vision is for lifelong financial wellbeing for everyone in the UK. Our annual Impact Report shows our progress, how we raised and spent our funding, and the innovative financial education we delivered.

Most young people in the UK are leaving school without the financial skills and confidence they need to manage money as adults. Too many don’t access financial education until secondary school, when it is far too late. Their teachers are left without the tools or training to teach financial education with confidence. And their families find it too difficult or stressful to talk about money at home.

At the same time, the financial environment is becoming increasingly complex and difficult to navigate. Children who missed out on financial education in the past are now young adults, struggling with a reliance on social media for financial advice and an increase in online scams and harmful information. Financial illiteracy and inequality are deeply impacting people’s wellbeing and mental health.

We are on a mission to make sure every child is empowered with financial education for life.

Looking ahead

In 2024, we reviewed and refocused our strategy to ensure we can continue reaching as many children as possible and achieve powerful financial education outcomes. We will still be supporting teachers to deliver financial education with LifeSavers, prioritising expanding and deepening our relationship with schools across the UK.

We have also brought in three new strategic development priorities, emphasising our renewed commitment to equipping families and communities to support financial education at home, and our ongoing advocacy for increased funding and prioritisation at a national level.

We need your support

During challenging times, we’ve continued to invest in the financial wellbeing of future generations and provide meaningful financial education that gives children the tools they need to make informed money choices. Every resource we create, every teacher we train and every child we educate is because of our generous funders.

We have more work to do to ensure no child misses out. Join us.
