raw: skills for everyday lifeThe new raw campaign and website has now launched! raw money is one of the first topic areas to go live. You will find our website at www.bbc.co.uk/raw Read on to find out more about raw How raw has changed?RaW has now changed to raw: skills for everyday life. The website has been redesigned to create a user friendly, video-rich resource offering practical advice, inspiring activities and real life experiences to empower adults to take the next steps towards tackling their skills needs. We have launched with raw money (financial capability) and raw computers (basic ICT*). Over time, the site will grow to cover a range of topics such as numeracy and employability skills as it continues to reach adults with basic skills needs. If you work in the literacy sector, look out for new reading and writing resources which will be available on the raw website later in the year. What's on the website nowraw money is a great way to pick up tips and tools for managing your money better and on a range of money subjects that affect us all and features expert advice from BBC presenters Dominic Littlewood and Jasmine Birtles. Other subject areas include raw computers, a presenter led guide to using computers and the internet, suitable for absolute beginners. The website and resources have been designed to be appealing and accessible to a wide range of adults, including those with poor literacy and numeracy skills. Beyond the website, raw is running free, hands-on, raw money workshops in workplaces across the UK throughout March, April and May. Workshops will cover a variety of themes such as planning for retirement, credit and borrowing, money and kids and practical budgeting. The workshops are available to download and customise, along with other resources from bbc.co.uk/raw/partners.
