A PROJECT which aims to help Bolton teenagers through the maze of personal finances is about to enter its second year.

Britannic Assurance's Britannic Street is a soap-opera style video with a distinctly fiscal flavour which has already proved to a be a big-hit with schools.

It covers topics such as planning for retirement and living away from home and will be launched in schools in September.

"Street" fans can also visit the project's website at www.britannicstreet.co.uk and schools can get their free copy of the video by contact Britannic Assurance's Education Programme on 0870 333 0414.
