Every workshop we deliver is informed by the issues we encounter through our FCA-authorised debt advice.
Through our frontline debt advice, we see the difficult conversations that many families struggle to have about money. We meet parents who are too proud or too worried to ask their adult children who are working to contribute towards household bills. We see young adults handing over most of their wages to support their families, leaving themselves unable to save, move into independent housing or build financial security.
We support multigenerational households where rising living costs, overcrowding, debt and financial pressures can create tension, misunderstanding and conflict.
These are not simply money problems. They are family, cultural and social challenges that require understanding as well as practical solutions.
That is why we develop educational programmes based on what people are actually experiencing, not what we think they may need. Our workshops, community conversations and resources help children, young people, parents and older generations talk openly about money, understand financial responsibilities, plan for the future and make informed decisions together.
We believe that financial education should begin long before a crisis occurs. By learning from the experiences of the communities we serve, we help families build healthier financial relationships, reduce conflict, strengthen resilience and create opportunities for future generations.

Breaking Point to Breaking Through reveals a hidden debt crisis affecting Bangladeshi Londoners, based on community consultations with over 45 residents, frontline workers and statutory organisations in Tower Hamlets.
Despite 63% of Bangladeshi Londoners living in poverty, there is no dedicated, culturally responsive debt advice service for this community. The report shows how shame and honour (izzat), faith-based barriers to interest, informal lending, remittance pressures and intergenerational trauma combine to push families into crisis before they seek help.
