Charlotte Burns is the financial blogger behind the Lotty Earns blog, which won the prestigious Headline money award for 'financial blog of the year' three years running. During a tough period of unemployment and sofa-surfing, Charlotte became an expert on how to make money go as far as possible.

She convinced Martin Lewis that no-one knew about this topic better than her, and subsequently worked as a Deals Hunter for Money Saving Expert for several years. Charlotte is now an editor for the government's Money Advice Service pages, where she has worked on mental health campaigns with Martin Lewis.

Charlotte knows first-hand how important it is to have money guidance from a young age, and is passionate about passing on down-to-earth tips that people can trust.
