Money Matters
We understand that money can be an emotional subject and trying to manage it can be worrying. We also understand that everybody’s situation is different which is why we try to make sure the same Money Matters Advisor sees you each time.

A crisis can occur for lots of different reasons – benefit delays, losing a job, an unexpected bill or gradually things getting more difficult until no longer you feel you can cope. If you don’t have enough money to feed, clothe or keep warm there is help available. There is no need to struggle alone.

Our experience is that the best quality services, outcomes, and lasting benefit is created in collaboration with customers, service users and other stakeholders. By harnessing their capacity, knowledge and creativity, we are able to achieve more by working together effectively.
To do this, we co-ordinate the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Financial Capability Forum which brings together local government, and the local voluntary and community sectors to enable us all to better understand the impact of national policy changes and work together to try to join services up at a local level. If you would like to find out more about this please contact moneyadvice@chsgroup.org.uk.
We are an active member of the GET Group, which also brings together organisations to better support people into education, training or employment. And we are working closely with Cambridgeshire County Council and Spice to bring Time Credits to Cambridgeshire.
We also work with stakeholders to bring in resources to the local area by collaborating on joint projects. As a legacy of being partners in Making Money Count and the New Horizons projects we facilitate the Making Money Count website, which offers everyday help with money to people living in Cambridgeshire.
If you would like to talk to us about how you think our organisations might work together please contact our Head of Community Investment and Support Andrew Church on info@chsgroup.org.uk
