Money Talk Team

Money Talk Team

If you are struggling to make your money last or worried about how you’ll pay your bills, the Money Talk Team can provide a financial health check can help you ensure you are receiving the money you are entitled to, and not paying over the odds for services.

 

What is a Financial Health Check?

The Money Talk Team  can be accessed over the phone or in person at your local Citizens Advice Bureau. It’s nothing scary, just a chat to see what you might be entitled to, and advice to help you make the most of your money. The advisers will check for you whether you’re getting as much income as you possibly could and find ways that you could pay out less each month.

 

Ways you might be able to save cash:

  • Cheaper deals on things like gas and electricity
  • Claiming benefits you might not know you’re entitled to
  • Grants or exemptions you may be entitled to

If you have any money worries, or if you are in debt and you want some advice, the advisers will be able to talk you through your options and help you find the best way forward
