Watch our session with Rebecca O’Connor (Becky) from Good With Money joined us to talk about money in June. Want to know how to be good with money?
But what about Pensions
There’s £2.6 trillion in UK pensions. This money is owned by all of us, and is invested to build our savings for the future. But from fossil fuels to tobacco, exploitation to extraction, these investments are often contradicting our values. That’s why we’re calling for our money to be invested in building a future we can be proud of, economies we can rely on, and an environment we can thrive in.
