Our Impact transforming financial education
How we’re making money lessons an everyday part of growing up.
Our vision is for lifelong financial wellbeing for everyone in the UK. Our annual Impact Report shows our progress, how we raised and spent our funding, and the innovative financial education we delivered.
Money touches all of our lives - whether we have a lot of it, a little of it, or are just starting to make sense of it. Children are growing up in a world where money choices are more complex than ever, yet most don’t get the chance to learn about them early on.
We exist to change how children grow up with money. By giving adults - teachers, parents, carers, and community leaders - the tools, guidance, and inspiration to teach and support children, we make financial learning part of everyday life. We’re working on resources and programmes fit into classrooms, homes, and community settings so children can explore, practice, and build confidence with money from an early age.
2025: a year of progress and possibility - with you
135,809 children
had the opportunity to learn about money at a LifeSavers school.
551 primary schools
had access to free financial education resources with LifeSavers.
£482,459 raised
to ensure all our programmes remain free, unbiased, and accessible.
Every child who gets meaningful financial education is a step closer to lifelong financial wellbeing – a step we’ve taken together.
Your generosity directly supported our financial education programmes across the UK, providing training, classroom activities and ongoing support.
Through education, advocacy, and collaboration, we are closing the financial literacy gap and ensuring all children, regardless of background and learning ability, have access to essential money skills.
Stories straight from the classroom
Donna is an Assistant Principle across two primary schools for children with additional needs. In 2025, she worked with us to embed LifeSavers into the curriculum to help open doors to futures that pupils might otherwise not believe possible.
partnerships in action
Financial education works best when trusted adults work together. Our partnerships with schools, families, funders, and corporate partners make our programmes possible and extend their impact:
Volunteers bring real-world expertise and interactive workshops into classrooms
Funding partners ensure programmes are free, unbiased, and accessible to all children
Schools and teachers deliver engaging, relevant lessons to every child
Families, community organisations and other charities help extend learning beyond the classroom
Every achievement this year is a shared one – the result of collaboration, creativity, and commitment.
Looking ahead
Our three-year strategy to 2027 underpins our ambition for every child to enjoy lifelong financial wellbeing. To make that a reality, we're focusing on three key areas:
Support schools to teach money. We're helping school leaders and teachers prepare for the new curriculum in England with compulsory financial education, so every child receives the best possible financial education sooner.
Help families and communities talk about money. We're launching new financial education activities for carers and youth workers to encourage money learning in everyday life.
Grow funding for financial education. We're building new partnerships and growing our fundraising income to make sure financial education stays free, unbiased and accessible.
We need your support
During challenging times, we’ve continued to invest in the financial wellbeing of future generations and provide meaningful financial education that gives children the tools they need to make informed money choices. Every resource we create, every teacher we train and every child we educate is because of our generous funders.
We have more work to do to ensure no child misses out. Join us.
