Celebrating National Numeracy Day – 21st May

National Numeracy Day returns on Wednesday 21st May 2025 and there will be something for everyone, no matter how you feel about numbers!

For the first time National Numeracy Day has a theme. For 2025 we will be talking about MONEY, and this is why…

New research shows that a third of UK adults (32%) say being able to better manage their money is the reason they want to improve their maths and numeracy skills. This goes even higher for parents of young children, and young people. We also know from talking to learners how crippling it can be for our finances to lack confidence with numbers. 

At 2aspire, we are all about helping you boost your essential skills through our Adult and Family Learning programmes. We know how important it is to feel confident with numbers in your everyday life, whether you are budgeting at home or tackling tasks at work.

That’s why we are excited about National Numeracy Day on May 21st, 2025, and want to let you know about National Numeracy’s free nudge app to help you manage everyday money hacks.

On National Numeracy Day at 12.30pm Nudge financial education will be hosting a live session featuring simple and effective money hacks to help you with daily money management. It lasts 1 hour. Get a notification on YouTubeso you don’t miss out!  

If you cannot watch on the day why not just sign up and take the National Numeracy Challenge or take a look at the nudge blogs below:
