How CAP can help

Community

We know that when it comes to saving money and making lifestyle changes, there’s so much we can learn from each other. Everyone finds dealing with the pressures of life a stressful and lonely challenge at times. That’s why CAP Life Skills is designed to be a fun and relaxed place where you’ll meet other people in similar situations, who understand you and can encourage you.

Course

Part of CAP Life Skills is an eight session course to teach you practical money saving techniques, such as cooking on a budget, living healthily on less, and making your money go further. We will also give you top tips for dealing with life’s pressures, and helping you take control of your future. These sessions will be set in a relaxed environment with a mixture of practical activities and informal discussions.

Coaching

Knowing exactly where your money is coming from and where it is going each month isn’t easy. You will have the opportunity to benefit from informal one-to-one support from a trained CAP Life Skills Coach who will help you to think about your spending choices and work towards a simple budget. This will help you gain better control over your money and lighten the pressures money can bring.
