Making Money Easier launch event

We will be launching "Making Money Easier" on 26th November. "Making Money Easier" is a set of printed and online guides designed to make banking more accessible and easier to understand for people with learning disabilities.

The event will be held on Wednesday, 26th November, 4.30-6pm, Institute of Directors, London and has been kindly sponsored by HSBC.

The event will be hosted by Martyn Lewis and guest speakers will include Rt Hon Alan Johnson MP, Secretary of State for Health. Building financial capability has never been more important. And this includes building financial knowledge and awareness amongst the 1m people with learning disabilities in England who are often effectively excluded from mainstream financial services by a lack of simple, accessible financial information.

To bridge the gap, we have been working with the umbrella body ARC and funders including the Friends Provident Foundation, the Now Let’s Talk Money Campaign and HSBC to create a range of brand new accessible resources under the banner "Making Money Easier".Attendance is free of charge but places are strictly limited.

To book your place please contact Pauline Spiers either by email at pauline.spiers@unitedresponse.org.uk or by calling 020 8246 5208. You will then be sent an official invitation and joining instructions.
