Heather just loves delivering financial education! One thing she is truly passionate as part of her role as a financial advisor, is making sure she educates people around money matters. That’s why earlier this year she gained her licence and accreditation to deliver financial education and wellbeing sessions to children and adults.
So when Heather was given the opportunity to go back to the school she went to, her daughter went to and where she was a Governor for 12 years, she jumped at the chance. They had been studying finance, so this helped them deliver one part of the curriculum and more. Educating some keen young people into managing their money from a young age. Look at their faces as they are engaged experiencing through activities how to manage money!
Watching the children learn through the fun exercises the importance of saving, risk, reward, how to spot a scam and compound interest was so rewarding! It makes it so worthwhile knowing it could really help them later in life. And the feedback from the children was just incredible. Comments like “wish it lasted longer” and “excellent” and “I know to make a plan” are just brilliant!
Heather has now delivered sessions to 5-7 year olds and 10- 11 year olds in Croft and have extended the learning onto the parents at the school who can dial into a Webinar on 27th September and get some hints and tips on their financial well-being including saving, budgeting and planning for retirement.
This has again added to Heather's drive to get out there and help as many as she can with financial education and wellbeing. She also offers these sessions to workplaces, either as a webinar or presentation or drop in sessions too in and around the Warrington area.
