Two women compare coping with two cost of living crises, 30 years apart.
Today we are seeing energy and food prices soaring, leaving some struggling to afford basic necessities. Moet, a single mum living in Birmingham, has been struggling to keep up with the increases in costs. She has found herself getting into debt after being made redundant in May. She says she sometimes has only 拢7.50 left in her bank account at the end of the month for a food shop.
She meets Carry, who was also a single mum during the recession that began in 1991. She managed to survive 鈥� just - by starting her own business. Can her experiences of living on the breadline help Moet get through today's financial squeeze?
