Reviews

Leaving care is an exciting time, but it can also come with a lot of questions, especially about money. This course is here to be your financial friend! We'll take a deep dive into the cash you might receive when you step out on your own, like leaving care grants or housing benefits.

We won't just throw money terms at you, though. We'll break down what each type of support is for, in plain English. Think of it like understanding a secret code to unlock your financial resources.

But money isn't just about numbers – it's about feeling secure and in control. That's why we'll also cover smart spending strategies. We'll talk about budgeting like a boss, prioritizing your needs, and avoiding those sneaky extras that can drain your wallet.

And because sharing is caring, you'll get to hear from other young people who have left care. They'll share their real-life experiences and tips on how they made their money work for them. Learning from each other is the best way to feel prepared and confident!

By the end of this course, you'll be a money master. You'll understand how to use the resources available to you and feel on top of your financial game. It's all about taking charge and building a bright future for yourself!
