Department for the Economy NI joins the NI Network with the aim to empower money guiders by raising awareness about scams. Attendees will learn how to recognise scams, understand their impact on victims’ lives, and prevent service users from falling victim.

Four years ago, in the midst of the Coronavirus pandemic, Reed in Partnership commenced service delivery operations of the Young Finance Centre. This was a short digital Money and Pensions Service Youth Checkpoints pilot, that aimed to provide easy-to-access money guidance for young people between the ages of 16 to 24, that was co-designed with Polar Insight and their subcontractor Bright Harbour. Since then we have delivered two further Money and Pensions Service pilots in Northern Ireland including Talk, Learn, Do NI, and we now of course deliver the excellent Money Guiders NI Network. We are proud to continue this important Network in partnership with the Money and Pensions Service today to ensure that local organisations and individuals get access to information and resources that enables them to have more confident money conversations with their customers and service users. For more information please visit https://lnkd.in/dbRZPqJu It has also been great to work with so many passionate and committed people along the way, both past and present: Haley Couzens Richard Denyer-Bewick Janine Maher Mags Mccloskey Samantha Scullion Amy McAnulty Christine Shaw amongst many others!
