Thank you @BigIssue & @LGeraghty23 for highlighting #FurniturePoverty, and the role we play in combatting it. Thanks also to @EndFurniturePov and @Fair4AllFinance for stats and quotes to bring the issue to life - and to @FairCreditChty patron Gail Porter for sharing her story.

TV star Gail Porter was one of the most famous faces of the 1990s. 📺 Then, after developing alopecia in 2005, and experiencing mental health issues, Porter found herself homeless. Today she speaks to the Big Issue about furniture poverty. ⬇️ bigissue.com/news/activism/…

Collaboration is king; the opportunity is big; start somewhere. These were some of our key takeaways from the @Fair4AllFinance #financialinclusion conference. Thank you for the @FairforYouCIC & @IcelandFoods food club shout out!

Recently we brought together over 200 leaders from across financial services, community finance, public sector and third sector organisations at our first ever #FinancialInclusion conference. Here are our six key takeaways from the day. What were yours? fair4allfinance.org.uk/six-takeaways-…



We know how easily adverse life events can push financially-excluded households into a crisis. Thank you to our customer for talking @journomadeleine/@MoneyTelegraph through her life and setbacks, and how Fair for You helps keep the show on the road. telegraph.co.uk/money/consumer…


It is concerning that irresponsible or unaffordable lending is a key driver in a sharp rise in complaints against financial firms. The number of complaints about irresponsible lending more than trebled the last year, @financialombuds says 👇 #credit #finance

Our latest annual complaints data, published today, is a review of our work over the course of the 2023/24 financial year. It shows the volume of complaints we received and the proportion of complaints we upheld. Read the full data and insight: financial-ombudsman.org.uk/data-insight/a… #Data



Ah, here's a nice bit of news for a Friday... We're delighted to have been nominated in the Innovation category of the #CorpFinanceAwards - thanks to @Corp_Fin_News and the judges. 🫰 Cross your fingers for us on 18 September. 🔗 corporatefinancenews.net/awards/enter.p… #AffordableCredit
