Talk Money Week 2025

From energy advice to pensions, Talk Money Week aims to help you build money conversations into everyday life.

We all have money worries. Research shows that 1 in 3 of us say thinking about our financial situation makes us worried. There are simple steps you can take to improve your financial wellbeing.

Attend one of our free events to get help and advice about money issues. Some events require advance booking.

Brum Financial Futures 2025

Brum Financial Futures is a landmark initiative by Birmingham City Council, in partnership with Money & Pensions Service and ANDCP in collaboration with industry experts and regional partners. This event is a bold response to the cost-of-living crisis and rising financial exclusion across the city.

Set to take place in Talk Money Week 2025, this flagship event will bring together local communities, financial advisers, educators, employers, and social support networks to create a citywide movement for financial empowerment.

Join the conversation:

  • Monday 3 November 2025
  • 9:00am to 4:00pm
  • STEAMhouse, Belmont Row, Birmingham, B4 7RQ
