JUST CREDIT UNION IS ENCOURAGING SHROPSHIRE TO “ËœTALK MONEY’
Despite the COVID-19 crisis affecting our finances, 9 out of 10 adults find it hard to talk about money so we are supporting Talk Money Week 2020 and encouraging people to discuss their money management. The week encourages people to talk about money from pocket money right through to pensions and it also celebrates the work done by thousands of organisations, including credit unions, to build financial wellbeing across the country.
Improving the county’s financial well-being is core to all of Just Credit Union’s activities. Talking openly about money is vitally important for our health, wealth and relationships. Research shows that people who talk about money make better and less risky financial decisions, have stronger personal relationships, and feel less stressed and more in control.
Financial wellbeing is about feeling secure and in control. It is knowing that you can pay the bills today, deal with the unexpected and are on track for a healthy financial future.
We will be working with partners, including community groups, schools, and employers to spread the word, and we will be sharing lots of hints and tips during the week to help conversations with children friends and partners. We will also be providing access to sources of free advice and guidance about managing your money.
Don’t wait for a serious situation which requires urgent action to start! You can get started today! Follow our Facebook page and visit our website and let’s get Talking About Money.”ÂÂ
