Nesta has produced an evidenced-based approach to helping people reach their goals. Nesta, Macmillan Cancer Support, the British Heart Foundation and the UCL Centre for Behaviour Change have worked together to develop a universal model of ‘Good Help’ underpinned by behavioural evidence, which can be understood and accessed by everyone. We analysed and simplified behaviour change research and practice, and worked with a group of 30 practitioners and people with lived experience to iterate and cross-check the behavioural evidence against real life experiences. Dartington Service Design Lab helped to structure and format the evidence in a way that makes it easy for everyone to understand.

Thamesbank began life serving the population of Brentford and Isleworth. It quickly expanded and absorbed Hounslow Employees Credit Union. It now has a common bond that encapsulates London Boroughs of Hounslow; Richmond upon Thames; Kingston upon Thames; Wandsworth; Ealing and Spelthorne Council. We invest any funds that are not being lent to other members. Any surplus that the credit union makes will be split roughly into three areas. Firstly there is a duty for all credit unions to develop reserves and a percentage of any surplus made will always go into the reserves of the credit union. Secondly, the credit union Directors may wish to put part of any surplus into developing the credit union or its products and services. Lastly, any remaining monies will be returned to savers in the form of a dividend.
