The £1 million Savers Support Fund will scale proven social action programmes that improve money management skills and reduce debt for individuals and families in England. All projects must work with a majority of families who are just about managing, and/or young people aged 14-25.

We are looking to fund four to six organisations with grants of between £150,000 and £250,000 to scale (through growth, franchising or replication) proven approaches to help people better manage money. We will provide financial and non-financial support to help grow the impact and reach of the best innovations.

To address any questions ahead of the application process, we held a series of webinars for potential candidates. The webinars were hosted by Lydia Ragoonanan our Senior Programme Manager leading on the fund.

The webinars gave applicants the opportunity to find out about the purpose of the fund and the process for applying.
