Tendo support launch of the Centre for Financial Capability

We are delighted to have supported the launch of a new charity, The Centre for Financial Capability today alongside our client KickStart Money. Early intervention financial education is a crucial tool for navigating financial decisions in later life.

Every child in the UK should be supported to develop the skills and behaviours necessary to navigate critical financial decisions in later life, starting at primary school. That mission is the driving force behind the launch of The Centre for Financial Capability.

The charity has been founded by the backers of the KickStart Money initiative, a ground-breaking coalition of 20 financial services firms who invested over £1 million to reach over 20,000 primary aged children with expert-led financial education for the first time.

2 out of 3 primary aged children who took part in the programme were working towards a savings goal after receiving lessons. This is nearly double the national average.

The new charity will continue to invest in financial education delivery but also champion innovation, build further evidence of what works and campaign for greater investment in this critical area.
