Description:
Developing young people’s core transferable skills gives them the tools to manage money, understand risk and build good financial habits throughout their life. Through LifeSkills sessions we introduce aspects of finance from an early age (primary) and encourage young people to explore mathematical concepts through real world examples. Financial education is important to help young people build their knowledge for future financial wellbeing.

DYW Context:
We recognise the challenges faced by young people leaving school with low aspirations and at risk of negative destination. Financial vulnerability, alongside the need to build a skilled workforce is an essential area of support Barclays LifeSkills can provide. We work with young people to give them the confidence, skills, and knowledge they need to succeed.
