Partners in Wellbeing 2-year Update

  • FCVic

The Small Business Financial Counselling Program at EACH Partners in Wellbeing recently analysed the client data we have collected over the course of our first 2 years of operation. We collected information about the demographic of our client base, including their business structure and the industry they work in, as well as information about the issues (financial and psycho-social) affecting them. We also wanted to highlight the client outcomes we have achieved and to look at trends over the life of the program.

The graph below shows the steady increase in demand for small business financial counselling to July 2022. The peaks during 2021 correlate to an increase in demand due to the second round of Victorian lockdowns.

The Small Business Financial Counselling Program services all small businesses in Victoria and can be accessed by calling 1300 375 330. In addition to financial counselling, wellbeing coaching and business advice are also available.
