Financial security
While you’re in the process of finding a new job, your finances might be impacted. To help you during this difficult time, try setting up your budget and examine your living expenses - mortgage, credit cards, direct debits, insurance, utilities and weekly activities. Are there any expenses that can be reduced?
Our budget calculator can give you good insights into creating a personal budget or reviewing your outgoings.
We can also help build money management skills through our free Managing Your Money workshops and webinars.
