Money Ready Primary School Volunteer

At Money Ready we deliver a progressive programme of financial education in schools across the UK.
Think of all the things you were never taught at school but wish you had been – budgeting, borrowing, saving, investing and more. We need the support of volunteers to help us deliver this to children of primary-school age, across the northeast.
As a volunteer, your tasks will involve:
  • Visiting a local primary school to support small groups of children in classes with pre-designed games, covering money management topics such as budgeting, borrowing and saving.
  • Enthusing young people to engage with the activities
  • Encouraging the pupils to ask questions and be inquisitive about their learning
  • Bringing a sense of fun and energy - children are always very excited to have a visitor in school teaching them about something new!

Our volunteer opportunities are perfect for small group volunteering, giving teams of 3-6 employees the chance to volunteer together for the day.

No previous experience or specialist skills are needed.

You can join us for a one-off volunteering session or become a regular volunteer.

Either way, your impact is immediate, as you help bring the world of money to life for the children you support.
