BBC Radio 4 - You and Yours, Student Finance, 50 years of shopping; Noisy neighbours

Students are short of money because they can't find jobs to top up their loans.

Students are short of money because they can't work to top up their student maintenance loans.

Students are short of money because they can't find jobs to top up their maintenance loans. We speak to students, the NUS and the Vice Chancellor of the University of West England about what can be done to help students struggling.

We look at the last 50 years of retail therapy as part of our celebration of You and Yours' birthday- our listeners tell us their memories of how they spent their cash in the 1970s.

More of us are having disagreements with our neighbours this year, what can you do to resolve things amicably?

And, we head to Warrington town centre to hear why businesses are begging the government not to send northern towns like theirs into a deeper lockdown.

Presenter: Winifred Robinson
Producer: Lydia Thomas

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
