New Report Launched: Safe Spending for Adults with Learning Disabilities
- A Call to Action for Financial Services

Who are we?
Project Nemo is a catalyst for change. A 12-month campaign that shares compelling stories of lived experiences and expert insights through films and podcasts, aiming to educate the UK’s FinTech industry on disability inclusion and inspire meaningful action.
What do we mean by disability inclusion?
Employees: Accessible and inclusive workplaces and careers
Customers: Financial inclusion via products and services that are inclusive and accessible by design
Why it matters
As the future face of financial services, the FinTech industry holds immense power to show the way on what an inclusive and accessible world should look like.
An estimated 16.0 million people in the UK had a disability in 2021/22. This represents 24% of the total population

The Purple Pound – the consumer spending power of disabled people and their families – equates to £274 billion and rising at 14% per annum. Globally the figure is $13 trillion annually
