Fantastic to see Visa ambassador Ellie Challis featured in Stylist Magazine, sharing her Paralympic Games Paris 2024 journey and the challenges she's overcome to get there.

A big thank you to Visa and Ellie for collaborating with us to inspire our young members to follow their dreams. With the Paralympic Games Paris 2024 around the corner, we wish Ellie all the best as she continues to push boundaries and achieve her own dreams. #EllieChallis #Paralympics #Inspiration #Dreams https://lnkd.in/e_t9zxpw

☀️ The summer holidays are here, and with them come the familiar cries of “I’m bored!” But fear not, parents! Encouraging your kids to find a summer job or take on extra chores can be the perfect solution. Summer jobs help kids build key skills like communication, problem-solving, and time management, boosting their confidence and sense of accomplishment, as well as instilling a sense of responsibility and the value of earning their own money. For younger kids who can’t get traditional jobs, extra chores can be a great way to earn pocket money. Our data shows kids earned over £3.7 million from chores last year! Top-paying chores include: 👶 Babysitting: £5.39 on average 🌾 Mowing the lawn: £3.46 on average 🚗 Washing the car: £2.97 on average 🪴 Gardening: £1.96 on average CEO and co-founder of GoHenry, Louise Hill, suggests summer is the ideal time for kids to get entrepreneurial or earn from chores. From selling clothes on Depop to babysitting, mowing lawns, or washing cars, there are plenty of opportunities for kids to earn and learn. https://lnkd.in/d4fNm-EZ #SummerJobs #Entrepreneurship #PocketMoney #GoHenry #LifeSkills #FinancialResponsibility #SummerHolidays #Kidpreneurs

A curriculum review and a focus on life skills ✅ We’ll take that.

Great to see Labour focus on raising educational standards in the King’s Speech today via its Children's Wellbeing Bill and Skills England Bill 👑 We wait to see if it will include specifics around financial education, but Labour’s pledge to order ALL schools to teach a national curriculum and to conduct a curriculum review offers huge opportunity 🤞 We are also encouraged by Labour’s pre-election pledge to deliver practical skills to young people at both primary and secondary school level, which is reflected in its Skills England Bill and aims to ensure that skills needs are being met across the country 🛠 We very much hope that financial education - as a core life skill - will form part of these bills. Young people, parents, teachers, education charities and employers all want financial education to be more prominent in schools and our GoHenry Financial Education Manifesto lays out a clear roadmap for how this can be delivered quickly and cost effectively 💰 We’ll be doing everything we can to make the case for financial education, to promote our manifesto, and ensure that financial education is prioritised in all schools from primary school age 💪 #makemoneycount #kingsspeech #lifeskills #financialeducation #manifesto https://lnkd.in/ewCexa4X

Congratulations to the #Labour party and Keir Starmer on their success in the UK’s #GeneralElection 👏 We’re encouraged by the Labour Financial Services Review, which made reference to the importance of financial education and literacy, particularly among young people 👦 👧 We've also been closely following Labour’s policies around closing the divide between academic and vocational education and delivering practical skills to young people at both primary and secondary school level 🎒 While we appreciate there are many areas the new government will be looking to fix 🔧 we're excited by the new Education Secretary’s vision for schools and will continue our push - alongside industry colleagues such as MyBnk, The Centre for Financial Capability, Young Enterprise UK and RedSTART Educate - to ensure the Education Select Committee’s findings into strengthening financial education in schools aren’t lost in the change of government 💪 Here’s to the start of a new era in education - hopefully with financial education and practical skills at the heart of it ❤️ #makemoneycount #financialeducation #education #government
