The evaluators employed a mixed methods approach. The programme explored a range of financial capability topics, including budgeting, savings, credit and debt, and planning for the future. This evaluation focused on the five-day course. The evaluation aim was to determine the impact of young people’s transition into independent living, having completed the programme. The evaluation took place between January 2017- October 2018. The studyĮRS Ltd were commissioned to evaluate MyBnk’s TMH programme. Over 500 participants had completed the programme at the time of the evaluation. The programme was delivered to small groups (up to 10 participants), via one-day and five-day courses.

The project was delivered in two London flats (one in Newham and one in Greenwich), and participants were referred from local authorities and other organisations in neighbouring boroughs. The aim of the programme was to equip young people with independent living skills, including financial capability training. The target group was young people, including care leavers and students, seeking social housing or who were new to private sector renting. MyBnk took over programme delivery in 2017. The programme was based on a model designed by MyBnk and Hyde Housing in 2012, which had supported over 600 participants by 2016.
