A FREE guide on how to manage money for those facing a squeeze on their cash had been produced by the Learndirect centre in Burnley.

The Burnley Telematics and Teleworking Centre, in Daneshouse Road, has produced the Worth Learning Guide with independent financial expert Jasmine Birtles and the Citizens Advice Bureau.

Ejaz Hussain, manager from Burnley Telematics and Teleworking Centre, said: “From understanding percentages to helping work out interest rates or discounts on the high street, to getting the computer know-how to go online and compare prices, learndirect can help people in and around Burnley get the skills they want.

“The guide is a start to giving people the ability to budget, shop around for the best deals and avoid getting ripped off.”

The guides are available to be picked up from the Learndirect Centre in Daneshouse Road.
