Richard Branson on government loans for entrepreneurs

You and Yours

Available for over a year

Richard Branson explains why he wants the Government to give student-style-loans to young entrepreneurs. Also: De-shopping - the retail fraud where customers buy clothing, wear it and then take it back. It's on the rise as consumers find more sophisticated ways to out smart the retailers. The designer of a revolutionary cardboard cycle helmet tells us why he thinks it's safer than anything else on the market. And the Property Ombudsman on why it's time to start regulating letting agents. Presented by Winifred Robinson. Produced by Karen Dalziel.
