Delighted to receive coverage in the @Telegraph over the weekend! Our research has found that 23% of over 65s have used #BNPL schemes. It is essential that people are taught about the dangers of #BNPL early, to ensure they are not taking such financial risks in later life.

But adult £ habits form from age 7!

Children who had poor financial capabilities before starting Money Twist made large improvements.

Among those who gave incorrect responses before the programme, the average score of correct responses rose by 54% after completing it.
