Money confidence built in Cardiff, not on a generic worksheet.

Young people learn how to plan, save, and make choices with money they actually use. Our mentors translate budgeting into everyday life so the lesson sticks.

A short story from the first week

One learner brought in a list of weekend plans. We turned it into a spending map, then compared it with their weekly allowance. That moment is when the subject becomes personal.

What learners cover in the first month

Week 1: Money stories How spending habits are shaped at home and in the city.

Week 2: The three jars method Split income into spending, saving, and giving with real examples.

Week 3: Needs versus wants Practice with supermarket receipts and transport choices.

Week 4: Goal mapping Create a savings plan for a hobby or future trip.

Cardiff families asked for lessons that feel local

We use real costs from neighbourhoods, local transport, and weekend events. That way children understand how choices affect their time and their money.
