Event Venue and Description: Hallam View, Sheffield Hallam University, Howard Street, Sheffield

Find out how you can improve employee wellbeing and retention, through supporting financial resilience.

Demos is excited to announce the launch of their Sheffield Region Good Credit project with an employers summit to connect businesses, share innovation and inspire action.

Sheffield Region Good Credit is a place-based financial inclusion initiative to transform credit provision throughout the UK, starting with the Sheffield City Region. Supported by the mayor Dan Jarvis, the project will bring together stakeholders from across sectors to co-design tailored initiatives to improve the credit environment in the region. This follows the launch of their ground breaking Good Credit Index which identified ‘credit deserts’ where people struggle to access affordable credit despite a clear need for it.

This employers summit will demonstrate how businesses can improve employee wellbeing and retention, through practical solutions which come at no cost to the employer. High cost credit and the risk of uncontrollable debt can negatively impact on performance and attendance – supporting your employees to access fair, affordable credit can mitigate this risk and position you as part of the responsible business agenda.

Attendees will have the opportunity to sign-up up to the Sheffield Region Good Credit pledge, and make a commitment to improve the local credit environment.
