Getting on with numbers can help you get on in life and National Numeracy are launching a new campaign week in November to help you build your Number Confidence.

Feeling number confident can make us feel more comfortable to get into work or get on at work, manage our money or help our kids with homework. It can also make us feel more confident about ourselves.

Many people have low confidence with numbers and experience stress, anxiety or fear. It’s an understandable way to feel, but you are not alone, and you can overcome it. Often low number confidence comes from thinking we can’t do maths, rather than our actual ability.

These thoughts stop us from getting on, gaining skills and fulfilling our potential. For one week, from Monday 2 November, we are supporting the charity National Numeracy in its bid to get the nation feeling more confident with numbers!

A great way to boost your own number confidence is to try the National Numeracy Challenge, a free online tool that helps you develop confidence and skills, in just 10 minutes a day, at your own pace.
