Thank you for your interest in contributing to Money Mending.
Our mission is to provide the most practical, experience-led, and trustworthy financial guidance for people in the UK. We help our readers take control of their finances through actionable guides on side hustles, smart saving, and long-term wealth building.
We are always looking for new voices and fresh perspectives from writers who share our passion for creating high-quality, genuinely helpful content.
What We’re Looking For
We publish practical, in-depth articles that empower our readers to take action. We are not a platform for generic, regurgitated advice. Your post must be built on genuine Experience, demonstrate clear Expertise, and be written in a Trustworthy and authoritative voice that aligns with our E-E-A-T principles.
We are primarily interested in three types of content:
- Personal Case Studies: Did you pay off a large amount of debt? Did you successfully save for a house deposit? Did you build a side hustle to a specific income level? We want to hear the real story, including the numbers, the challenges, and the lessons learned.
- Detailed “How-To” Guides: In-depth, step-by-step guides that walk a reader through a specific financial process, such as navigating a UK government savings scheme or optimising their finances for a major life event.
- Unique Perspectives: Well-researched opinion pieces on topics relevant to UK personal finance, productivity, or financial well-being.
Our Audience
Our readers are savvy UK residents who are actively looking to improve their financial situation. They are tired of vague tips and want actionable, real-world strategies. They are intelligent, motivated, and appreciate content that is well-researched, honest, and respects their time.
