Banking in the UK:
To open a bank account, you will have to fill out an application form. This can be done in branch with the bank, online or, often, over the phone. You’ll need to provide certain details about yourself including: name, address and date of birth. You’ll also be asked to provide documents like your passport and proof of where you live, for example: a utility bill. But if you can’t provide one of the documents, they will accept a letter of referral from someone that knows you, like a GP or your manager. You can also go to the post office and pick up a biometric residence permit.

There are different terms and conditions with different banks, you need to select a bank with an account that suits you, because you will be in a contract with them.

There are a number of different types of bank accounts that you can open. They all serve different purposes and can include:

Current account – Using a current account helps you manage your day-to-day spending whether that’s paying bills or direct debits or receiving money from your employer.

Savings account – An account that can give you interest in your money and allows you to save money for the future, useful if you need to pay for expensive items or emergencies.

A bank can refuse to open a bank account for you and they don’t need to give a reason. But they cannot discriminate against you because of your race, religion, sexuality or disability. If you are discriminated against, please contact the financial ombudsman or the citizens advice bureau.

You could completely digitalise your banking by signing up to online banks like Monzo or Chase. Other banks do offer online services too. Managing your day-to-day spending can become a lot quicker with internet banking, you can pay bills more quickly too.

Skills for Care are holding a Peer models of support: empowering connections in adult social care webinar on 17 October 2023.

This webinar will bring together adult social care employers, registered managers, care workers, individual employers, and personal assistants in the field of peer support to discuss best practice, success stories, and challenges.

This is an excellent opportunity to gain insights, network with peers, and contribute to the ongoing conversation about enhancing support in the workforce.

Peer support is defined and operated in a range of ways and in some instances is not explicitly described as peer support. The essence of peer support is that it offers something that is mutually beneficial.
