In this learning pathway we look at different types of financial support that are available. Financial support is not only for times of distress. Did you know that you can benefit from financial support when you:
- Work for an employer in the grocery sector, like Unilever?
- Save for a deposit on your first home, or retirement, or when you save in certain types of share schemes?
- When you spend online?
- When you (or your children) are in higher education?
- When you get behind in your utilities bills?
Of course, there could be times when we might face financial difficulty and distress, and we also cover the steps you can take to protect yourself from this position. We want everyone to know that there is support available when financial distress arises, no matter what the cause – whether it’s you or a family member or friend. In this session we discuss how to navigate the many different sources of financial support available for these situations.
After watching this series of four videos you will feel confident about what to do if you (or someone close to you) finds themselves in financial distress, as well as finding out about top tips for financial support available to everyone whether its for saving, spending, working and more.
Please note that these videos were recorded in May 2021 and reflect our understanding of the relevant Unilever benefits and tax bands, if applicable, at that time.
