Money Mastery Meets the Benefits Trap is a free one-day coaching seminar for youth workers and other professionals working with young people.

The series will also explore how to support second and third generation benefits recipients to develop beliefs that allow them to consider work a viable option rather than a "mug's game" and how to help young people from chaotic backgrounds with little structure in their lives develop the habits necessary for work or education such as timekeeping.
