Money worries?

Through this project, Credit Action aims to bring straightforward budgeting tips and signposting to free money advice to marginalised groups through use of eye-catching postcards and posters.

The project is now in its third phase and in December 2009 75,000 postcards will be distributed to 546 Children's Centres in England. Children's Centres across cities such as Manchester, Birmingham and Hull, alongwith most London boroughs will be displaying the cards that let people know where to go if money worries are giving them sleepless nights.

An exciting development of the Money Worries project came when the Army requested 100,000 Money Worries postcards to be included in Army payslips.

Through the initial pilot of the project 8,000 postcards were distributed; in the second stage of the project 40,000 were distributed; now with 175,000 postcards printed, the Money Worries project is bigger and better than before.
