Talk Money Week 2020 – 9 – 13 November

An annual campaign to get the nation talking about money.

This year, Talk Money Week will take place from Monday 9 November – Friday 13 November.

The annual campaign aims to encourage the nation to talk about managing money, from pocket money to pensions, celebrating the work done by thousands of organisations to build financial wellbeing across the country.

The campaign provides a platform to have a conversation about money between families and friends, at work or at school or in any other areas. The goal is to turn talking about money from one of the UK’s least favourite topics into something commonplace.

Talking openly about money is important for our health, wealth and relationships. The effect of Covid-19 has made it more important than ever to start conversations about money.

Research shows that people who talk about money:

• make better and less risky financial decisions
• have stronger personal relationships
• help their children form good lifetime money habits
• feel less stressed or anxious and more in control

Building money conversations into our everyday lives also helps us build financial confidence and resilience to face whatever the future throws at us.

We’re supporting the campaign by signposting support available to you on our Staff Information Page in Money and Pensions and our Employee Wellbeing webpages during Talk Money Week.  The Money Advisory Service (MAS) provide our financial wellbeing content, specifically the Financial Advice information on the My Money webpages.
