Where to keep your money - (03/02/10)
This topical new section, Where to keep your money, takes a close look at how banks and building societies can help us look after our money.

Tax section updated and extended - (01/12/09)
The subject of tax is not easy but it's good if we can understand how it affects us. To shed some more light on this we have expanded our tax section.

Whole site audit 2009
Throughout 2009 we have been working to map, review and update Money Matters to Me to keep it up to date and relevant. Changes have been made throughout the many hundreds of pages to ensure that you get accurate and up-to-date information. One example is the plastic cards section which now reflects new card types, for example pre paid cards, not available when Money Matters to Me was launched.

Large text version
This version of the site takes all of the text and presents it in a large print, easy-to-read version. Please remember that due to the very interactive and dynamic nature of the site that some visual elements will be unavailable in the large text version. However, we have included all relevant interactive visuals and re-sized them for easier reading.
