RedSTART Educate is now part of Money Ready. Together, we’re building a stronger, smarter, and more unified response to the UK’s financial literacy crisis.
Our young adult programmes equip 16-25-year-olds with the essential money management skills they need to navigate major life transitions.
Our programmes are designed to provide practical, real-world financial knowledge. Sessions are interactive, engaging, and tailored to suit the needs of each group. Participants can also earn a Level 1 Personal Money Management qualification.
Our workshops focus on debt prioritisation, money management, and independent living. Delivered through councils, charities and non-mainstream education institutions, we provide young adults, including those often not in employment, education or training or leaving care, with tools to manage their money with confidence.
Money Ready’s expert trainers will come to your organisation with our colourful resources including worksheets, Powerpoints, and audio-visual aids to deliver our workshops. Every £1 spent on Money Ready’s young adult programmes creates £4.47 in social value and the impact increases as time goes on.
Some workshops are also available to be delivered virtually instead of in-person, please specify on the form when requesting a session if you are interested in an online session or would like any adaptations to the workshop.
