It was great to visit @WaterlooPS_ and see first-hand how young people were being empowered to take charge of their future by bringing money to life –@KickStart_Money want to create generations of young adults who can budget or make informed decision.

Delighted to receive coverage in the @Telegraph over the weekend! Our research has found that 23% of over 65s have used #BNPL schemes. It is essential that people are taught about the dangers of #BNPL early, to ensure they are not taking such financial risks in later life.

Children who had poor financial capabilities before starting Money Twist made large improvements. Among those who gave incorrect responses before the programme, the average score of correct responses rose by 54% after completing it. @KickStart_Money #TalkMoney @IFAMagazine
Thank you @IFAMagazine for featuring the research we funded in collaboration with @MyBnk on the link between early childhood financial education and improved understanding of money & financial issues this #TalkMoney Week!
