Visible Mending; Credit Card Interest; Mobile Roaming Charges
Credit card interest rates are at their highest for over twenty years. Why and who is paying the highest price?
Credit card interest rates are at their highest since 1998. Why when the Bank of England base rate has been so low? Winifred Robinson talks to someone who experienced credit card debt first hand about the impact high rates of interest had on his ability to pay the debt off. And banking commentator Frances Copolla and Michael Donald CEO of ImageNPay discuss whether the banks can justify the interest they charge.
Visible Repairing is a growing trend for repairing clothes that makes mends beautiful. Rather trying to hide holes menders stich in pattern and colour around the damaged section giving clothes a new lease of life. But how affordable is it and how easy to do? Winifred Robinson talks to knitwear designer and visible creative mender Flora Collingwood-Norris and one of her students Jan-Alice Merry.
