As a geriatric millennial fighting his mortgage company to lend £££ until I am 70, this would be incredibly helpful.

Totally agree, workplaces need to do better here. Complex problems need teams with lived experience.

Yes, of course hard to have all the nuance and address everyone’s particular circumstances. I was just surprised to see a large proportion of long term saving being in cash ISAs. We’re an outlier as a country in doing this.

Monthly purchase of a low cost index fund over long periods of time rather than stock picking. All the data I can see shows this to be better than long term cash savings.

I’m not a financial advisor etc…

I remember NESTA used to be active in this space. I worked with a local developer on a peer to peer book sharing service in a London borough www.nesta.org.uk/project/make... about 15 years ago!
Make it Local
Make it Local aimed to show how local authorities can work with digital agencies to unlock their data and create really useful web-based services for their citizens.
