About this opportunity
Money and finances are a huge concern for young people and can have a significant impact on wellbeing and reaching your goals. It’s vital young people have a say in shaping the financial products and services that impact your lives!
Young Scot is working in partnership with the Edinburgh Futures Institute and their Compassion in Financial Services Hub to hear directly from and work with young people, as well as financial experts and academics. It’ll be an opportunity to understand how money and financial products and services have an impact on young people’s futures from housing, making decisions about your future opportunities, family planning, retirement and so many other aspects of life.
Young Scot are running four in-person events across Scotland, kindly supported by Royal Bank of Scotland and ‘Thinking the Future of Money in the Humanities’ funded by the Royal Society of Edinburgh, to hear from young people about how money affects your daily lives, your wellbeing and aspirations for the future, as well as how money and finances affects the decisions you make. They’ll be exploring your experiences as well as how they can make services more inclusive and accessible for young people in the future.
Join them at one of the in-person events to share your experiences and have your say!
You don’t need any experience or knowledge to apply, YoungScot are keen to hear from young people with a variety of experiences and from all sorts of backgrounds and communities.
