Banks, Childcare and Pensions

Banks, childcare and pensions.

Linda visits Kilkeel which has gone from a town with no banks to having a hub with a different bank there each day.

And there are four more of these Banking Hubs planned for N Ireland.

With the average cost of a full time childcare place in NI more than Β£10,000 a year who is staying home to mind the baby?

Linda talks to Aoife Hamilton who has published this year's NI Childcare report.

And the knock on affect for women's pensions when it’s time to retire. Alison Nicolson from Scottish Widows tells us why three quarters of single moms face pension poverty.

Johnny came to On Your Behalf when his identity was stolen, and his credit rating plummeted making getting a new mortgage very tricky.
