Financial Wellbeing Training

Financial Wellbeing

An individual’s financial circumstances can largely impact on their health and wellbeing. For example, financial worries are widely reported as a factor which exacerbates existing, or contributes to the development of, a range of mental health conditions.

Financial Wellbeing is about feeling as though you have enough money to meet your needs with a sense of security. It’s about being in control of your day-to-day finances and having the financial freedom to make choices that allow you to enjoy life.
