Chief Executive’s Message
Thank you for taking the time to read The Money Charity’s Annual Report for 2020, a year where it would be impossible to start with anything but the dominant issue, Covid-19. The pandemic tore up the rulebook for us all, rapidly changing everyone’s definition of ‘normal’ and moving the UK to collectively embrace wholly new patterns of life, as we all got much more used to phrases like “you’re on mute” and “shall we Zoom later?”
It was a deeply challenging year for charities and for us, as with many others, the story of 2020 changed radically from what had been planned, moving from thriving to just surviving, from achieving all our goals to simply staying afloat.
As the year progressed, we saw the pandemic having a wide range of effects on the UK’s finances. Positives were seen for those whose finances have improved as a result of changed working lives and patterns, with some ‘usual’ bills rendered unnecessary, many have been able to save at record levels as well as paying off significant swathes of credit. These are, of course, developments to be very warmly welcomed. However, for many more people, the financial effects have been profoundly negative, with spending levels having to rise, borrowing increasing to cover everyday expenses and unemployment levels rising. Sadly, in all too many ways, the pandemic’s effect has simply been to improve the financial situation of those who were already doing well, while worsening it for those already struggling.
Into those struggles, we were encouraged to see a range of sensible and compassionate financial supports and measures, implemented by the government and the FCA, to protect and prop up both the economy and individuals. How these measures are maintained or phased out in the coming year will have a major impact on the UK’s wider financial recovery and people’s Financial Wellbeing.
March was when the pandemic very suddenly became an imminent and present threat in the UK and it was then that we shut down the office and sent the whole staff team to home-working. Within a few weeks we were in full lockdown and with schools and colleges shut, as well as so many workplace teams working remotely, our main Workshop delivery activity had become unachievable. With our Trustee board’s agreement, we therefore put the whole charity on furlough, which lasted in total from April to August.
As we returned in September, the immediate challenge was the sense of ‘starting again’. In some cases, we could resume business as usual, but for our Workshops this clearly still wasn’t possible. I was hugely proud then of the team for how quickly they pivoted our Workshop offering to a virtual one, updating content, interactions and methods, quickly enabling a resumption of bookings as well as much needed income. Interest in this new delivery method was strong and received excellent initial feedback. We believe that one of the real benefits of virtual delivery which we will see in the coming months is an elimination of some of the geographic or logistical blocks that sometimes made securing bookings a challenge, meaning we can truly expand our delivery to all corners of the UK, albeit via the screen!
Whether delivered face-to-face or virtually, our Financial Education Money Workshops for Young People are still foundational to what we do, bringing essential, engaging, interactive and fun learning to young people at the ages where they may make key financial decisions or form the behaviours which will have implications in their coming years. Even with the year’s challenges, we still managed to deliver over 350 hours of Money
4
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
Workshops to over 7,600 Young People. Over two-thirds of this delivery was to schools and colleges classed as in disadvantaged areas, many of which will have borne the brunt of the pandemic’s financial effects. Moreover, 13% of our total Workshop delivery to young people was in non-mainstream settings, a real growth area for us. Our commitment remains clear then, that regardless of background or circumstances, we believe that everyone needs, and can benefit from, the equipping and skills we help people to develop in getting to grips with their money.
Meanwhile our adult Financial Wellbeing Workshops continue to engage people with Financial Wellbeing in the workplace, or in their community, often in their context of need. With awareness of the many who were struggling, we quickly expanded our Workshop range to include more sessions specifically focused on managing money during challenging times. While total completed bookings for the year were low, as 2020 drew to a close, we could see the green shoots of multiple enquiries coming through and booking numbers increasing, which means we look to the new year with real expectation of growth.
While we would typically expect our email and social media audiences, as well as our website traffic, to have suffered through the furlough months as we effectively ‘went quiet’, we were really encouraged on return to see that nearly all our followers/subscribers had stuck with us, or that numbers quickly recovered to and beyond their previous points. Budget Builder user numbers also increased as more people took their first steps into planning their finances, many perhaps for the very first time.
One of our biggest regrets in having to shut down was the suspension of the Money Statistics, with no reports produced during the furlough. These were the first ‘missing’ months in recent memory, as well as looking back in our existing archives back to 2008! However, readership has continued to grow and in the latter months of 2020 we saw real upsurges in open rates for the Money Stats, suggesting an increase in interest in, or need for, the valuable insights our objective and impartial viewpoint provides. If you aren’t already a subscriber, there’s no better time to get it straight into your inbox, sign up! Our wider Policy work also continued and we were pleased to contribute to several very positive, forward-focused consultations on topics which we will continue to monitor with interest in the next year.
Through all the challenges, our work continues to be underpinned and supported by our invaluable funders, without whom we would be able to achieve very little and our considerable thanks go out to all of them, both new and existing partners. Coming out of the pandemic, the UK will need a focus on Financial Wellbeing perhaps like never before, so it should be an exciting and impactful time to join us in partnership.
We hope that in the rest of this report, you will see how hard we have worked to find our way through the difficulties of 2020, so that we can continue to see the UK achieve Financial Wellbeing by managing its money well, by supporting people of all ages, backgrounds and abilities in making the most of their money, reducing their stress and the burden of financial worries so they can live happier, more fulfilled lives. If you would like to help us in this mission, in any way at all, please do get in touch with us so we can start a conversation. We’d love to hear from you!

Trustees’ Annual Report
The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
Reference and administrative information set out on page 3 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and articles of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.
Objectives and Activities
Purposes and Aims
The Money Charity is the UK’s Financial Capability charity, providing education, information, advice and guidance to all. Our vision is that everyone achieves Financial Wellbeing by managing their money well. We empower people across the UK to build the skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours to make the most of their money throughout their lives; helping them achieve their goals and live a happier, more positive life as a result.
Our charitable objectives were reviewed in 2018 and changed in 2019 to better reflect our focus. They are:
- the prevention of financial hardship in the United Kingdom for the public benefit, in particular, but not exclusively, by providing money management education, advice and information
6
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
We do this primarily through our own delivery, but also through influencing and supporting others. We develop and deliver products and services that provide education, information and advice on money matters for those in the workplace, in our communities, and in education. We also influence and support others to promote Financial Capability and Financial Wellbeing, through consultancy, policy, research, and media work. We will continue to develop our offering to find innovative and engaging ways to do this and to cover the whole UK more comprehensively.
The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year. This report looks at what the charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The trustees report the success of each key activity and the benefits the charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.
Everything the charity does focuses on improving the Financial Capability of those in the United Kingdom. Our long-term objectives are to increase individuals’ ability to manage and make the most of their money. Day-to-day, our work is focused around four key areas: supporting workplaces and communities, supporting young people, consultancy work, and influencing others. Our main focus, and the area that we spend the majority of our resources on, is the direct delivery of Financial Capability products and services to young people and adults.

Achievements and Performance
The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described further below. All its charitable activities focus on Financial Capability and good money management and are undertaken to further The Money Charity’s charitable purposes for the public benefit.
We measure our success in many ways. One of the most important is the number of people we reach with our support and messages, whether this is the number of participants at our Money Workshops, those who read our Manuals and/or Money Statistics reports, or how many access our website and social media channels. We also look at the number and location of schools we work in, the numbers and types of not-for-profit organisations and community groups we partner with, as well as the range of commercial organisations whose staff we can reach with our training. The quality and impact of our Financial Education is another key benchmark for us. We evaluate our young people and adult Workshops each year, as well as using independent evaluation when possible, to provide benchmarks for assessment of the impact we are having. We also put weight on the quality and reach of our communications, including consultations, participation in sector groups, and other policy and influencing work in the Financial Capability area.
Details of some of the key benchmarks and outcomes during the year are described below and in the infographics which follow.
Young People
We need to reach people with Financial Education well before they ‘need’ it.
-
Young people’s money management habits are heavily influenced by their family’s financial behaviour. They are significantly less likely to save for themselves if their family struggles to save for emergencies, risking a cascade of problems to the next generation.
-
Financial education has now been on the curriculum in England since 2014 but there are still no resources allocated to supporting it, nor is it yet covered by Ofsted. This is the situation despite the fact that good understanding and approaches, once implemented, can change prospects and lives while being beneficial to wider society.
Many teachers or people working with young people tell us they feel ill-equipped and lack confidence in helping them find out about how to manage their finances in a rapidly changing world, where money is increasingly ‘virtual’ and those who go on to university are likely to graduate with debts of a level unknown just a few years ago.
It is vital then to the rest of young people’s lives that they understand the importance of budgeting, financial planning and making well-informed financial decisions.

Money Workshops
The aim of The Money Charity’s Young People’s Money Workshops is to provide the building blocks to sound money management, helping young people develop the skills, knowledge, attitudes and behaviours so they can make the most of their money throughout their lives. We offer unique and tailored Financial Education Workshops designed for young people aged between 11-18. Our Workshops are designed with flexibility so they can fit easily into timetables or schedules, with a modular approach which means that teachers and practitioners can pick and choose the topics they think are most relevant to their classes or groups. There is up to five hours of content available for each age group.
Delivered to groups of up to 40, they cover the essentials of staying on top of your money, including using money to achieve your goals, saving, tax, how to read a payslip, understanding credit as well as financial products like banking and student finance. Each Workshop includes a range of activities, the chance to debate and discuss, with relevant takeaways for the young people. We often deliver as part of designated lesson times, such as during Citizenship, Maths or PSHE, and our Workshops are mapped to the English, Northern Irish and Welsh Curricula.
Our Young People’s Money Workshops are available for schools and colleges, as well as for other youth settings such as charities and community groups that work with young people. Every session is delivered by one of our expert facilitators, either a member of staff or one of our freelance consultants, who are based around the country and engage the organisations in their area through active promotion and ongoing relationships.
Of course, one of the significant challenges of
2020 was that the organisations where we deliver our Money Workshops were shut down, either partially or entirely, for large periods of time. During the first lockdown, this meant the charity took the decision to furlough the entire staff team and temporarily suspend all our work. On return from this period though, the Young People’s team worked rapidly and effectively to start adapting our range of Workshops in order to offer them virtually via Zoom and by year’s end, many of our Money Workshops were available for both virtual or faceto-face delivery. Having both these options helped us be able to reach both young people in school and those at home, meaning no-one had to miss out if isolating or when schools were closed.
9
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
Understandably though, Workshop demand dipped in light of the various closures, with reluctance to make bookings or sessions and then having to be cancelled at late notice. However, take-up of Workshop bookings did recover encouragingly, albeit down from what we would expect to see in a ‘typical’ year. In 2020, we delivered a total of 359 Hours of Money Workshops, with 255 (over 70% ) of those hours delivered in areas classified as disadvantaged, to 7,663 Young People across England, Northern Ireland and Wales. 135 of those hours, to 2,510 Young People , were bookings fulfilled since the return from furlough.
Another positive to draw from the year’s challenging circumstances was a breakdown of the geographical and time barriers which had sometimes limited us. While there are areas of the UK which are, practically speaking, far away from where our staff and consultants are based, having virtual delivery available eliminates these issues, meaning we have been able to take on delivery to new places and will continue to do so.
As well as our Workshops within traditional educational settings, we have also continued our delivery to young people in other non-mainstream groups, such as young refugees, ESOL (English to Speakers of Other Languages) students, young people in the criminal justice system, youth groups and more. We delivered 46 Hours of Workshops in these settings, which is 13% of our total Workshop delivery. We continue to believe that anyone anywhere, regardless of their background or situation, can learn to manage their money well, and moreover that everyone needs to, so we look forward to taking this work further in the coming years.
Teacher Resource Packs
We believe that educating pupils at school about their finances at an age where they are starting to encounter having their own money and making future decisions is one of the most important things we can do. That’s why our Teacher Resource Packs remain an essential part of our Financial Education offering. These packs are styled as “lessons in a box” that can be left behind in schools we visit or sent to those who may find it difficult to schedule one of our Workshops.
Our full range of 13 packs focus on a wide range of accessible Financial Education subjects, suitable to KS3 and KS4 groups. Each pack is designed to fit into the curriculum, with the flexibility to fit into different lesson lengths, meaning teachers are facilitated in delivering engaging material, which has been developed with the benefit of our expertise and experience, to their classes.
10
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
Teachers nearly all understand the importance of impactful Financial Education for their classes, but for many, time pressures, lack of confidence or not feeling well enough informed themselves hold them back. It’s positive then that we distributed 395 Teacher Resource Packs in 2020.
While we weren’t able to take our newest option, our Teacher Support Sessions, much further due to the year’s events, these remain an option in the coming months as we seek to continue resourcing teachers.
Student Money Manual
Many young people who may have received little or no Financial Education in school face managing their own money for the first time as students, against a backdrop of very significant student debt.
We therefore produce our Student Money Manual (SMM) each year as an essential, accessible guide to student finance and how to manage money at university. It’s the only dedicated hard-copy resource that is produced, updated and printed annually, providing relevant and accurate information on how students can manage their money at university.
The SMM provides key information both for young people who are considering going to university (and may be unsure if they can afford to), as well as those who are already there and are looking for more input into how they manage their finances at this new stage of financial independence. These are life stages which particularly highlight money uncertainties to young people, meaning they are highly receptive to the Financial Capability message.
The year’s events were a major challenge to the SMM, with the furlough months overlapping with the usual yearly review and update cycle. However, following a shortened review process, the team were still able to complete an updated 2020-21 edition for the new academic year, ensuring this important resource remains available.
In the early months of 2020, we were also able to complete our piloting of Workshops to university students, which will become part of our offering next year.

Workplace and Community
We build Financial Wellbeing regardless of age, background and stage of life.
-
Although now part of the curriculum, most adults never received any Financial Education during school, university, or as part of an apprenticeship scheme. According to The Financial Capability Survey 2018, 47% of UK adults do not feel confident making decisions about financial products and services, while 63% do not feel they can determine what happens in their lives when it comes to money.
-
Increasingly, UK employers are acknowledging the link between employees’ wellbeing and their performance at work, with stress now the number one work-related health problem. A Close Brothers survey found that 94% of UK employees admitted to worrying about money and 77% of those saying money worries impact them at work. Clearly there are not only welfare, but also sound business reasons for providing Financial Wellbeing training at work. Plus with our independent, impartial viewpoint, employers can be assured they are equipping their staff with skills, knowledge and confidence, rather than straying into individualised financial advice.
Community Financial Wellbeing Workshops
Thanks to support from our funders, our Community Financial Wellbeing Workshops offer charities, community groups and voluntary organisations the opportunity to access valuable training for their beneficiaries, staff and volunteers which they would often be closed off from due to budget constraints. We have a wealth of experience and expertise delivering Workshops which enable these organisations to invest both in those they
work with and those who deliver that work, as well as inspiring those passionate about financial issues to step into volunteering opportunities to further spread the word within their communities.
Using relevant examples, delivery and materials, all our Workshops cover: attitudes to money, aspirations, budgeting and planning your finances, managing everyday money, building financial resilience, borrowing and saving to achieve your goals. The Workshops are engaging and relevant, focusing on developing Financial Capability and therefore improving Financial Wellbeing. During Workshops, participants are introduced to a range of tools, techniques and other organisations offering information and support, to help them to manage their money better.
12
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
In 2020 we delivered 17 Workshops to, and through, not-for-profit partner organisations and reached 164 people . As a charity ourselves, we know how incredibly difficult the year has been for charities and community organisations, so these low numbers came as no real surprise. As things hopefully continue to improve in the coming year, we intend to keep meeting this growing need for the many worthy organisations who will need it.
Groups reached in 2020 included those working with refugees, carers, people with disabilities and the homeless. Whomever it may be, we bring an ultimately positive message: that everyone can be in control of their finances and develop a positive relationship with money regardless of age, stage, background or situations.
Workplace Financial Wellbeing Workshops
As with the rest of our work, Commercial Workshop delivery was heavily impacted by the year’s disruptions, with 27 Workshops delivered to 407 People . Most of those bookings came either in the first two (pre-pandemic) months of the year or in the last two, following our Workplace & Community Team’s efficient pivoting of their Workshop offering from a face-toface offering to a virtual one. The move to virtual led to the start of some encouraging momentum in bookings and enquiries which we will look to consolidate in the next year.
As well as moving Workshop delivery online and pushing Webinars more prominently in our marketing, we also quickly developed a new series of standalone Workshops called Your Money & Covid, focusing on subjects highlighted by the pandemic, such as managing money during challenging times, financial resilience as well as preparing for eventualities like being made redundant. Initial interest in these Workshops was strong and we are sure these will be a growth area next year.
13
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
We already know from the many dominant narratives around the pandemic that the UK’s household finances have been heavily affected, many for the good and many for the bad, meaning Financial Wellbeing will likely become an even more prominent aspect of the wider conversations around wellbeing in the months to come. With employers becoming more acutely aware of the challenge, and vital importance, of their employee’s wellbeing, we remain extremely well placed to meet their need, due to the uniqueness of our fully independent and impartial offering.
The Money Manual
Following its redesign and relaunch in late 2019, we were delighted to start the year with a fresher, cleaner, new edition of the Manual, sitting complementarily alongside our Student Money Manual. The Manual continues to be a useful additional value resource to our Workplace & Community Workshop attendees, as well as selling well in the earlier months of the year.
Consultancy
Our long history of Consultancy work means we can offer our unique perspective, experience and expertise to add real insight and value to organisations working on a project or product.
An organisation might need support in building a Financial Wellbeing hub for their employees, or they may want our input in producing strong, engaging Financial Education content for a new resource helping parents who want to talk about money with their children. They may be looking to develop a new money management app, or need a critical friend who can help them ask the right questions about a new project or product. They might just want our help in gaining consumer and sector insights from our Financial Wellbeing perspective.
14
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
Whether it’s a one-off project or a whole suite of work, we have over 25 years of experience in the Financial Wellbeing, Financial Education, and Financial Capability sectors, meaning our diverse staff team and network of consultants can bring unique perspectives to any organisation.
As well as gaining access to our expert support, consultancy clients have the additional bonus of knowing that they’re supporting the wider work of The Money Charity, helping us deliver more Workshops to those that most need them, enabling us to continue producing
valuable resources, and speaking up in Policy & Research so our society’s financial systems deliver better outcomes for people every day.
Policy, Research and Communications
Campaigning, contributing to policy consultations and working with financial service providers to encourage developments that make money easier to understand and manage are vital elements of our work. As a small charity with a big vision, these are ways we can influence decision-makers, encourage others to provide Financial Capability support, and improve the financial lives of people across the UK.
In 2020, we submitted responses to 10 Consultations . These were on a broad range of topics from open
banking and open finance to unsecured credit, access to cash to climate change reporting for pension schemes and banks. We also commented on the FCA’s new vulnerability guidance which will be warmly welcomed. This range of topics illustrates the many diverse factors that go into good financial decision-making as well as the skills and knowledge people need in order to negotiate the UK’s complex markets in consumer financial services.
We remain an active participant within the Financial Capability sector, working with colleagues in fellow organisations who share our wish to improve the UK’s Financial Wellbeing. This included membership of several groups, such as the FCA’s Consumer Network and the Youth Financial Capability Group. Through these, and others, our voice is heard in many forums and with different audiences, meaning we can contribute to discussion of key issues which will have a lasting impact on our society.
15
The Money Charity Annual Report For the year ended 31 December 2020
Our Website and Social Media
The Money Charity’s objective is that Financial Capability support should be available to everyone who needs it. As we can’t provide direct face-to-face support for everyone, we publicise the issues of Financial Wellbeing and Financial Education through our press releases, website, social media and emails. With the world growing ever more digital, the challenge for all our channels is to keep moving, ensuring they are the best shop window for our work that they can possibly be.
Our website aims to offer straightforward, friendly information, as well as our resources, services and tools, and received nearly 17,000 Visits to almost 32,000 Pages from over 13,000 Unique Visitors through the year. Considering the year’s volatility, we were encouraged to see an upturn in site traffic from 2019.
Following its launch in desktop version in late 2017, followed by the release of Apple and Android app versions in late 2018, our free online Budget Builder continued to engage many more people with taking their first steps into budgeting, with 1,845 new sign-ups taking the total to over 6,600 Users .
One major issue during the furlough period was our concern at our social media channels, which are fundamentally providers of daily content, ‘going quiet’. However, our loyal and engaged followers stuck with this and in many cases grew regardless! While we saw some follower losses on Twitter, these numbers were recovered and growing by the year’s end, while our LinkedIn, Instagram and Facebook kept going strong. Our total social following increased to almost 7,500 by the end of 2020, with our posts making it into the news feeds of just under 190,000 People .
The Money Statistics
We trawl multiple statistical sources and crunch the data each month to produce the unique perspectives and fascinating facts of “The Money Statistics”, our objective round-up of important statistics in UK money, debt, credit, tax and benefits, housing and the economy.
The power of The Money Statistics isn’t just the varied and engaged audience they reach, but the stories they allow us to tell about the UK’s Financial Wellbeing. They are a platform for objective and impartial information, compiling and presenting complex information in a way that can be used within press and online,
highlighting a variety of vital issues. From the stark message of the average UK credit card debt and how long it may take to repay, to the challenging financial circumstances most young people find themselves in every day, they are our way of raising issues and generating further discussion.
However, 2020’s unique circumstances did lead to the Money Statistics joining the staff team on furlough between the March and September reports. These 5 ‘missing’ editions were the first months
16
The Money Charity Annual Report For the year ended 31 December 2020
without a report since the beginning of our existing archives in April 2008. The report’s popularity endured though, as we returned to many keen readers asking how soon the report would be back and then onwards to consistently growing reader numbers. While readership for the editions in 2019 and early 2020 typically ranged from 600-750, this flew up to over 1,000 for the year’s final few releases. Clearly we were missed!
While the report is directly received by these people each month, the report content then spreads far and wide beyond that, with a variety of sources sharing and making use of them in both their professional and personal lives. Many sites, media outlets and individuals will quote from them or use them as vital research or evidence, as well as key launching points into their own stories and presentations. Alongside Money Statistics quotations, we tracked around 15 Pieces of coverage or mentions across media channels through 2020. From September onwards we also introduced a new page in the report highlighting the many varied impacts of the pandemic on the UK’s household finances, ensuring the Money Statistics continues its extreme relevance to everyday financial life.
The Money Statistics continue to be the most popular page on our website alongside the homepage, demonstrating both a strong desire for this information, as well a clear indicator that this remains a vital thread of our work and one of the things for which we are best known.

Funding
We have continued to benefit from support from many of our much-valued existing funders, some of whom have supported our work for many years, such as Provident Financial/Vanquis, St James Place, Jack Petchey Foundation, John Coates Charitable Trust and CAF Resilience. In 2020 we warmly welcomed MoneySprite and Newcomen Collett, amongst others, who were either new or returning funders.
Beneficiaries of our Services
The beneficiaries of our services are people of all ages and backgrounds across the UK. Our faceto-face and virtual delivery in schools, colleges, community groups and workplaces takes place in England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales. Our digital and printed information and resources are available across the UK.
Financial Review
Overall income for the year amounted to £272,981 (2019 £633,554) with an expenditure for the period of £431,980 (2019 £635,816). Net income was -£158,999 compared with -£2,262 in 2019.
Net assets of the charity amounted to £285,791 (2019 £444,790) at 31 December 2020, comprising £118,899 (2019 £299,972) of unrestricted reserves and £166,892 (2019 £144,818) of restricted reserves. At year-end, there were no material commitments of unrestricted reserves not provided for as a liability in the accounts.
As the numbers above illustrate, 2020 was a tough year for the charity. For the past five years, we have received significant unrestricted donations from a number of sources. This was not the case this year, so we had a steep drop in our unearned income. In addition, Covid-19

The Money Charity Annual Report

and furloughing our staff meant that earning income ourselves, as well as generating and delivering grants and projects were all difficult. As a result our income was down across the board by nearly 60%. Trustees took action to review our strategy and to reduce costs wherever possible. This regretfully included not renewing, or stopping, some fixed-term staff contracts and not recruiting new staff when vacancies arose.
It was however necessary this year to use our reserves to survive. As a result our bank balances depleted through the year. We continue to use a number of at-hand bank accounts and deposits to provide an appropriate mix of security, investment income and short-term access. At year-end, bank and cash balances were £312,849 (2019 £338,008) and no short-term deposits (2019 £128,577).
It has been the historical policy of the organisation to ensure expenditure is closely linked to income, although this can vary with the timing of significant projects and this principle will continue in the future.
Our financial position in future will depend on a number of factors, primarily our ability to continue to raise funds, build our earned income and manage our cost base, as well as to retain our staff and continue to achieve desirable outcomes for those we support, and evidence this for our funders and the wider community.
Principal Risks and Uncertainties
2020 was a year where a number of risks crystalised for the charity. We were expecting that our unrestricted donations would reduce significantly as we knew that a significant donor in 2018 & 2019 would not continue into 2020. We did not however anticipate Covid-19 and the impact that had on our ability to earn money from other sources.
Moving forward there remains a significant
risk that we will not be able to generate sufficient income ourselves to cover our expenditure, either through paid-for training and consultancy or restricted projects, without also receiving unrestricted donations to cover our costs. We are doing everything we can to focus on income generation and to secure the future of the charity, but ultimately this is a difficult risk to mitigate.
In addition, it continues to be difficult to raise funds in the Financial Capability sector. Although what we do is valued by our beneficiaries and beyond, the debate as to who should pay for it continues. Initial signs from the Money and Pensions Service suggests that their focus will be on crisis debt solutions, at least in the short term, rather than the more preventative work we do.

Reserves Policy and Going Concern
It is the policy of the charity that the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (the free reserves) held, should equate to a minimum of three months of our unrestricted expenditure. In December 2020, unrestricted free reserves had decreased to £114,874. As a result we have reduced our unrestricted expenditure accordingly and this now represents four months worth of reserves.
We have had a strong start to 2021 and as a result our reserves have increased to £144,704 as at the end of March. Increasingly we are generating income through consultancy & training delivery and whilst this is welcome, it is not secured much in advance of delivery, so makes forecasting with certainty more difficult. However, we have reason to believe that there is an appetite for what we do and that we can continue to attract income at a steady state.
In addition, we have recently secured some new restricted project funding, meaning our ability to deliver in this area with certainty has also increased. Should our hopes for maintaining income over the next 12 months not be met, our reserves are sufficient to cover the difference in the short term. This, plus our cutting costs in 2020, means that we are comfortable that the charity is a going concern for at least the next 12 months with no material uncertainties.
Fundraising
Appointed in 2019 as our fundraising agency, Oaks Consultancy continued their work throughout 2020 and we spent £29,072 on fundraising in this way (2019 £26,758). Management of our corporate fundraising was done by the senior management team.
We do not fundraise directly from the public, other than facilitating this on our website. In addition, we have a small number of individuals who choose to donate annually or monthly. We do not market to our donors and so we are not registered with the Fundraising Regulator. We have received no complaints about our fundraising.

Plans for the Future
In 2018 we conducted a strategic review of the charity to set a strategic and forward direction for 2019 to 2021. 2020 was the second year of that strategy and we worked hard to continue to deliver it in exceptional circumstances. In 2021 we will look again to create a new three year strategy for the forthcoming years. We expect to continue to focus on achieving Financial Wellbeing for all those we work with, through our tried and tested methods, such as workshops and other resources, whilst adapting and innovating to ensure our relevance and that we remain engaging.
Structure, Governance and Management
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 28/09/2004 and registered as a charity on 23/11/04. The company was established under a memorandum of association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its articles of association. All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. There were no expenses reclaimed from the charity.
The governing body is the board of trustees. Four board meetings were held during the year, one at The Money Charity’s office, one at Punter Southall’s Office (provided to us by one of our trustees) and two by video conference call. The charity’s trustees and senior management attended these meetings.
The Chief Executive (Michelle Highman) who is appointed by the trustees, manages the day-to-day operation of The Money Charity’s activities under delegated authority. Paul Frost covered as Interim Chief Executive, from January to April, during the period of Michelle’s maternity leave. The Chief Executive is responsible for maintaining the direction of the organisation thus ensuring the charity’s objectives are achieved.
At year-end, the Chief Executive was supported by six staff, of whom three were part-time. The charity’s staff are all based at our head office in Clapham, London, but are all currently working remotely.

The Money Charity Annual Report For the year ended 31 December 2020
Appointment of Trustees
The directors of the company are charity trustees for the purpose of charity law and under the company’s Articles are known as members of the board. The board ensures that when admitting trustees, it takes into account the need for trustees to contribute to the skills and balance of the board as a whole. Recruitment is normally conducted on an open basis, unless a particular skill or need is identified which is best fulfilled by a known individual. Trustees are formally elected to post by the current trustees.
No new trustees were recruited in 2020.
Trustee Induction and Training
New trustees are inducted through a combination of face-to-face meetings and the provision of an induction pack.
Remuneration Policy for Key Management Personnel
The Chief Executive’s remuneration was set by the trustees on appointment. Since then she has voluntarily excluded herself from any pay review process. The trustees approved the maternity leave arrangements and the acting up payments for members of the management team covering 2020.
All other remuneration decisions are delegated to the Chief Executive within the pay review budget approved each year by the trustees.
Statement of Responsibilities of the Trustees
The trustees (who are also directors of The Money Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation
23
The Money Charity Annual Report
For the year ended 31 December 2020
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
In so far as the trustees are aware:
-
●There is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company’s auditor is unaware
-
●The trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The total number of such guarantees at 31 December 2020 was 4 (2019: 6). The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.
The trustees’ annual report has been approved by the trustees on date 26 April 2021 and signed on their behalf by

This report is made solely to the trustees as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). My examination has been undertaken so that I might state to the trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the trustees as a body, for my examination, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
