BBC Asian Network - BBC Asian Network's Big Debate, Weddings & children, Eat Out to Help Out extension and mental health

Qasa asks, should children be invited to weddings?

First, Qasa Alom gets a round-up of the latest news from our reporter Dil Neiyyar. After that we want your thoughts on whether the government’s Eat Out to Help Out scheme should be extended. Some restaurants have already said they'll carry it on and fund it themselves after it officially ends. Then Qasa wants to know, do you think children should be invited to weddings? This comes after a lady who had a small wedding in her garden opened up to an agony aunt column, after her big day was ruined by a child’s bad behaviour. Also we’ll be looking at the impact that coronavirus has had on people’s mental health during the pandemic. Recently, doctors have reported a rise in people coming forward for help. And we’ll have our feature Ladies First, where an all-female panel discuss news stories that affect the lives of British Asian women.
