'Start the conversation' this Talk Money Week

For many of us, talking about money still feels uncomfortable. We find it difficult to open up about our finances, even when we know it could help. But that’s what Talk Money Week aims to change. This national campaign is about encouraging open conversations about money – from pocket money to pensions – and helping to normalise these discussions all year round. 

Taking the first step  

This year’s theme cuts straight to the heart of it: ‘Start the conversation’. Because sometimes the hardest part of any challenge is simply taking the first step. Starting a conversation doesn’t need to be perfect or comprehensive, it could simply be:  

• a quick chat about budgeting with a partner  

• speaking to a friend about your financial goals or  

• introducing the concept of savings to a child  

Taking the first step towards action is what Talk Money Week is all about. But we want to help you go further.  

Introducing our Talk Money Week webinar packages

This November, our specialist financial wellbeing team – Better with Money – are offering employers a range of webinar packages available for purchase that don't just encourage conversation: they provide the expert guidance and practical tools to turn those conversations into meaningful financial wellbeing support.  

Each package includes our exclusive Talk Money Week webinar, delivered live to your employees, plus a supporting digital toolkit designed to help you make the most of the week – including a pension to-do list, budget planners, and more.

What we cover in the webinar:

• How to talk to your partner about money and plan jointly for milestones like buying a home 

• Discussing tricky topics with parents and family – inheritance, Wills, and Powers of Attorney

• Bringing children into money conversations early to build good habits
