New Bailiffs Regulator, Financial Abuse, Diverse Decorations

Available for over a year

Peter White talks to Catherine Brown, the chair of the Enforcement Conduct Board, a new body that's been set up to protect people in debt from being treated unfairly by bailiffs. We also hear one woman's account of bailiffs and the intimidation she experienced as a result. Charities and banks are reporting a spike in economic abuse cases this winter. Peter hears from someone who's lived through this kind of abuse and he talks to Carol Anderson from TSB, about the banks new Emergency Flee Fund and to Patrick Ryan, chief executive of the domestic abuse charity Hestia about the kind of help that's needed to tackle the issue. And we speak to the co-founder of March Muses, Alison Burton, about tackling the lack of diversity in Christmas decorations. Producer - Catherine Earlam Presenter - Peter White
