Get help with your finances

West Lothian Financial Inclusion Network provides advice and help on managing your money.

If you’re struggling or confused about cash why not try the service’s Money Magic course.

The course has been updated to adapt to requests made from previous participan­ts and can now offer a range of financial choices in half hour sessions.

Contact financial literacy officer, Ian McIntosh for more informatio­n.
