Family Finances Approach
Helping to improve your income through employment
Our Family Finances Key Workers are a professional and approachable team dedicated to helping parents improve financial resilience and increase their income through work.
Eligible parents are paired with a dedicated key worker to support them to achieve employment goals and overcome any barriers.
How we can help
We look at your family situation to help you create an action plan and link to the correct services and experts to achieve your employment and income goals.
This could be accessing funded training, supporting you to talk to employers and practical things like household budget planning and childcare options.

“When it comes to Family Finances, I wouldn’t have been able to achieve what I did without it. I had a great relationship with my keyworker, and we were always making forward progress. My mental health has improved massively. Having the action plan to work against really kept myself on track and focused on my goal.”
“When I met with my Family Finances Keyworker I had only been in Scotland for a short time and had no idea how to go about finding work. My keyworker was able to get me the support I needed in lots of different areas and I realised I could cope and be able to find work that could help my family. Since I started with Family Finances my confidence in my own abilities has grown and I am so happy that I now have a good job. I felt very hopeless and now I am happy and looking forward to the future.”
