Feel Good Hub explained for employees.
Your Financial Wellbeing at Work
Your employer has given you access to the Feel Good Hub, and it is genuinely worth a few minutes of your time to explore. It’s a set of real financial benefits, from mortgage and protection advice to will writing and money guidance, and it costs you nothing to use. This page explains what you get, how to make the most of it, and a few simple ways to feel more in control of your money.
What you get through the Feel Good Hub
The Hub gives you access to qualified, regulated financial help through your workplace, whenever you need it. Depending on your employer’s package, that includes:
- •Financial advice and guidance, so you have somewhere trusted to turn with money questions.
- •Mortgage advice, whether you are buying your first home, moving or thinking about remortgaging.
- •Protection reviews, covering life insurance, critical illness cover and income protection, so your home and family are looked after.
- •Will writing for Hub members, to make sure your wishes are clear.
- •Mortgage monitoring, which keeps an eye on rates so you are told if you could switch to a better deal.
- •Everyday partner perks across wellbeing and lifestyle.
Using any of it is simple: you get in touch through the Hub, have a no-pressure conversation with an adviser, and take it from there. There is no cost to you for taking part, and any fees on specific services are always explained clearly before you go ahead.
What is financial wellbeing?
Financial wellbeing is simply feeling secure and in control of your money: managing day to day, being able to handle the unexpected, and feeling on track for the future (Money and Pensions Service). It is not about how much you earn so much as how confident and in control you feel, and small steps can make a real difference.
Simple ways to improve your financial wellbeing.
You do not need to overhaul your whole life to feel better about money. A few practical habits go a long way, and our Feel Good Hub can help with several of them:
- •Know where your money goes. A simple budget, even a rough one, is the foundation of feeling in control (MoneyHelper).
- •Build a small buffer. Even a modest emergency fund takes the fear out of an unexpected bill.
- •Check the big commitments. Your mortgage and your protection are usually your largest financial decisions, and small improvements there matter most, which is exactly what the Hub can review for you.
- •Use the free help you have. Talking things through with an adviser through the Hub is one of the quickest ways to turn worry into a plan.
- •Talk about money. It feels awkward, but naming a worry is often the first step to sorting it.
The single most useful thing you can do is start. Booking one conversation through the Hub, about your mortgage, your protection or just where to begin, often clears up more than hours of scrolling on your own.
