Make your finances fitter
Yesterday, we hosted a community awareness event for local tenants at Skeoge Community Hub in Derry~Londonderry as part of Talk Money Week 2025, with our friends from the Consumer Council for Northern Ireland, Foyle Network Foundation (Foyle Foodbank), Pennyburn Credit Union, Budget Energy, Community Restorative Justice and ASK Advice.
The event featured a presentation from the Consumer Council on how to make your finances fitter and provided local people with the opportunity to access help and support to start budgeting, maximise their income, save money on bills, and manage debt.
