EVENT: Getting a Fair Deal for Young People
Date: Wednesday 13 July 2016
Time: 12.00 - 13.00
Location: Senedd
Description: Action for Children works to ensure that every child and young person has the support and opportunity they need to reach their potential. Disadvantaged and vulnerable young people have unique and complex needs. Young parents and care leavers often find themselves responsible for money at a much earlier age that their peers, but without family members to support and guide them. With inconsistent access to the education system, they don't get the opportunity to develop money skills at school. Furthermore, our young people have told us that they don't trust jobcentres and they find banks intimidating. At the Getting a Fair Deal event, Action for Children will propose a solution that addresses the problems faced by disadvantaged and vulnerable young people that can help to shape the development of the Welsh Government's refreshed Financial Inclusion Strategy, with support from Nick Ramsay AM.
Open to the public: Yes
